Ronnie Burkett Theatre of Marionettes / Saison Cinquième Salle

PRODUCTION AND PERFORMANCE: RONNIE BURKETT

Billy Twinkle is a middle-aged cruise ship puppeteer who dazzles audiences with his ‘Stars in Miniature’ marionette nightclub act.  He is the best in the business and on top of the world, until he is fired by the cruiseline.  Standing at the edge of the ship contemplating a watery demise, Billy is called back to reality when his dead mentor appears as a hand puppet and forces him to re-enact his life as a puppet show in order to remember and rekindle the passions he once had.

This requiem for a golden boy shines a little light on the wonder of youth meeting the wisdom of age, with a kick in the pants to finish what we started.
