“One of the companies at the center of [the new puppetry renaissance] is Drama of Works, a Brooklyn-based collective led by Artistic Director Gretchen Van Lente…curating and hosting the Annual Carnival of Samhain, a kind of hipster puppetry and performance jam… Drama of Works consistently produces work that functions and satisfies on multiple levels.”
