Sandglass presents a series of special appearances by stellar artists working in exciting interdisciplinary performance techniques, all of which are somehow related to Puppet Theater. This series celebrates the crossroads of art forms and the connection between puppetry and other art forms like clowning, magic and music.
Illusion, Music, and Theater show
By Phina Pipia
A tuba lights the way, beds make music, paintings come to life, and a radio delivers a message from the past in a whimsical production that combines elements of illusion, music, and theater. When a young grad student discovers that Leonardo da Vinci and his collaborator, magician and mathematician Luca Pacioli, invented a time machine, she is zapped back to the Renaissance. It’s up to her to decode their notes and solve a 15th-century mystery so that she can return to the present.
Winner of the San Diego International Fringe Festival’s Outstanding Solo Performance Award, the Vancouver Fringe Festival’s Joanna Maratta Award, the Critic’s Choice Award for Best Solo Show – Musical at Orlando Fringe, Artist Pick and Venue Pick Awards at the Minnesota Fringe, and named a Top Pick at the San Diego Fringe by PBS, Ha Ha Da Vinci invites audiences of all ages into a world where they can safely expect the delightfully unexpected.
Please join us for this family friendly performance that is sure to delight and entertain!
