Your Man’s Puppets: The Circus Stachamoose
”The Circus Stachamoose” introduces us to the theatrical delights from the intrepid Stachamoose brothers. These suspiciously similar-looking brothers display an energetic mix of physical comedy and manual dexterity using a nicely balanced blend of mischievous humour and accomplished puppeteer skills. It’s as nice a slice of surreal humour as you're likely to witness this year.
