December 7th and 8th, 2018, I performed The Feeder at the Dougherty Arts Center as part of Austin Puppet Incident.
The Feeder is a short solo tabletop puppetry piece that looks at a complicated relationship’s unintended consequences. The narrative centers on the surviving partner of a gainer/feeder couple’s run from the law after accidentally feeding his lover to death.

PRESS
The Dougherty Arts Center supports artists, serving as Austin’s cultural living room where people of all ages, races, ethnicities, abilities, genders, sexual orientations, socio-economic statuses, nationalities, and religions gather to create community through the arts.
I developed The Feeder in 2015 during the National Puppetry Conference at the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center and have subsequently performed it at the Echo Theatre in Portland and Dynasty Typewriter in Los Angeles.
