The Sex Lives Of Puppets
The Sex Lives Of Puppets
by Mark Down and Ben Keaton
Sexy, funny, insightful, and touching... lots of touching.
Inspired by the National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles Blind Summit goes under the covers to reveal the secret sex lives of puppets in contemporary Britain.
A combination of lip-sync dirty talk, table-top orgies and shadow-puppet pornography make an unforgettable evening.
“Oddly adorable”
The New York Times
"Hilarious”
The Guardian
“Like an X-rated blend of Googlebox and Creature Comforts"
The Daily Telegraph
“The solo puppets regale us with monologues that Alan Bennett would give his last Yorkshire teabag for... Is it too early to start talking about the best shows of the year?”
Broadway World
“A refreshingly positive message about sharing intimacy, shedding inhibitions and finding your own joy”.
