Then, one night

Wordless storytelling through music, puppetry, and projections

---

"Then, One Night" is a full-length, narrative theatrical event that crosses language barriers.  

Featuring two puppets, a spellbinding series of projected images, and a continuous original score, the result is an emotionally resonant experience that one critic described as: "weird puppet theater that will make you cry and cry."

---

a show designed to reflect its community with each presentation

"Then, One Night" revolves around three folktales. While the final folktale is specific to this play, the first two are an opportunity for collaboration with the community where the play is performed. 

Similarly, this 45-minute play can be scored again and again, with music bringing a powerful new voice to the piece.

What stories, what songs does your community have to share?
