The Fortune Teller and Phantom Limb


If you don't know who Phantom Limb Co. are just yet, you will. I know them as Jessica Grindstaff and Erik Sanko, two of the most creative, driven, lovely people on the planet. Several years ago their first puppet play opened at the Here Arts Center in Manhattan, and so many people loved the show that it's back to delight even more viewers. It's a creepy moral fairy tale featuring narration by Gavin Friday, music by Erik Sanko and Danny Elfman, and sets designed by Jessica Grindstaff. Up next for Phantom Limb on the left coast is the world premiere of The Composer is Dead, a collaboration with Lemony Snicket. As I mentioned- if you don't know them now, you will.
