Calling it a puppet show doesn’t quite capture the magic of The Baby Tyler Show. What we can call it is – surprising, hilarious, and unlike anything you’ve seen before! Join us for this uniquely joyful performance, where laughter and high stakes drama are conjured from the smallest of objects, live on your Playhouse stage!
Immerse yourself in Baby Tyler’s miniature world for a delirious and surreal journey. Standing just 25 cm tall, this mischievous little creature uses his cunning and superpowers to overcome the many obstacles that punctuate his daily life in this world designed for grown-ups.
Using everyday objects and her legendary sense of surprise, seasoned television puppeteer Ingrid Hansen (Fraggle Rock / Jim Henson Co. and Helpsters / Sesame Workshop) creates surreal and hilarious situations with her bare hands, miniature environments, and modeling clay. Stories in these tiny worlds are performed live and magnified by a video camera onto a huge screen. This puppet cabaret becomes a real live animated film with a good dose of comedy and breathtaking illusions.
As appropriate for kids as it is for adults, The Baby Tyler Show is a treat for everyone, regardless of age!
