The Timely Death of Victor Blott: !Metro Arts Independents
Details from the Dead Puppet Society fan page on Facebook.
Victor Blott was born without a heartbeat, no one expected him to live for long.
This gothic fairytale for grown-ups combines puppetry and live performance to weave a dark fable that is not for the faint of heart. Queensland’s most exciting new performance company, Dead Puppet Society, invite you to enter their fractured world where fantasy meets reality, the exquisite touches the horrific, and the mythic sits alongside the macabre.
