We Wiggle Dolls is touring YET AGAIN! On September 30th, the New-York centered but diasporic puppet show collective "We Wiggle Dolls” will perform a new adult-aimed and eclectic puppet cabaret set at Harmonie Hall! There, the cast will be joined by Philadelphia puppet artists Maisie O’Brien and Olli Goss.
We Wiggle Dolls is a diasporic puppet show collective spun out of a popular Brooklyn Puppet Slam. Since October 2023, We Wiggle Dolls has produced 10 puppet slams, a 6-day festival, immersive experiences, long form productions, a light and shadow rock music spectacle, three national tours, and has published several puppet-themed zines! We Wiggle Dolls’ mission is to bring as wide a variety of puppetry as possible to audiences, to showcase new talent alongside seasoned veterans, and to make historical puppet culture more readily accessible as well.
