The jaw-dropping show Puppetry of the Penis, returns to ACT Theatre from October 20 – 24. Tickets are on sale now for $45.
Puppetry of the Penis creator, Simon Morley led an arduous nationwide search to find two new Puppetry stars, and one of this show’s bright young talents was discovered right here in our own backyard!
Northwest native Christopher J. Cannon’s unusual natural abilities in the Ancient Australian Art of Genital Origami left Morley speechless. The 23-year-old discovered his own natural gift for “dick trickery” after seeing Puppetry of the Penis for the first time at age 17, in Portland Oregon, near his hometown of Vancouver, WA. Over 650 men and a few women have auditioned to be a penis puppeteer. But only 20 men have been tapped to officially hold the Puppetry of the Penis torch (totaling 143 inches).
Requiring amazing concentration, astonishing stamina, an unbelievable stretch factor and a remarkable level of testicular fortitude, this show leaves women and men gasping at over 40 heroic and hilarious penis installations including the Pelican, The Windsurfer, The Eiffel Tower, Loch Ness Monster, and their signature installation, the Hamburger. A video camera projects intimate detail of the installation onto a large screen ensuring little can be missed – even from the very back row!
It has been over 10 years – or a dickade – since audiences were first wowed by the genital origami extravaganza that is Puppetry of the Penis. Since then the show has played to over 10 million people, been performed in 5 different languages and travelled to 30 countries
Puppetry of the Penis is a non-sexual adult show. For more info including some…um, video, visit www.puppetryofthepenis.com and visit www.acttheatre.org for tickets.
