We are so excited to announce the rebirth of Jug-Baby: An Autobiography!! Philadelphia, you will have three chances, in three locations to catch this beautiful baby before it wiggles and waggles its way down to the New Orleans Fringe. Our first performance will be at the Rotunda on Sunday, Nov 2nd. Don't miss this magical one-woman show featuring animations by Sean MacPhee and Nora Humpage, live music by Upholstery, written, performed and pupeteered by C. Kennedy.
Pay what you can at the door, suggested $5-$15. We are trying to raise money to help us bring this show to the New Orleans Fringe, so every little bit helps! Show starts at 7pm.
Unsure of how they will feed their unexpected child, Mother and Father do the only logical thing they can think of: they place their newborn baby in a jug in order to mold it into something they can sell to a circus. When Jug-Baby finally emerges, it has no gender or identity to call its own, and soon realizes that others can mold it into whatever they desire. Join Jug-Baby on its fantastical journey as it learns to move past the expectations of others to find its own identity, aided by puppets, animations and live music.
Transmissions Theatre’s past productions include the ‘fiendishly satisfying noir comedy/thriller’ Rails (NO Fringe, ’13), the epic sci-fi adventure Iminami (LiveArts/Fringe '12), hailed as ‘pure genius’ by Philadelphia Weekly, and the ‘utterly, transcendently bizarre’ Water Bears in Space (LiveArts/Fringe '11).
Transmissions Theatre produces transcendently bizarre stories that span worlds from the microscopic to the cosmic. Their productions incorporate live music, puppetry, animations and found objects in epic narratives that rest on foundations of cardboard and chicken-wire.
Their productions have been hailed as:
“Pure Genius” – Philadelphia Weekly ,
“Utterly, transcendently bizarre” – Philadelphia City Paper
"…maybe not the weirdest Fringe show I've seen, but it's definitely top 3. Even better, it's a blast" – Philadelphia Inquirer
