    There is such beautiful creativity and themes woven together in THE PECULIAR PUPPETS OF PHILIP PLATT by Brenton Kniess. The heavy themes of death and grief are balanced by comedy and humor as the power of connection is explored throughout. There's a strong element of hope that carries through as the play itself is a joy to read or watch. And there's so much room here for directors, performers, and prop teams to have as much fun as those in the audience. Well done!
