Beulah

115270 original

Music, bedtime stories and puppetry collide in this hour long Little Fest performance.

Lively, upbeat music lulls us into a false sense of security at the beginning of this play, as what follows is a moving and emotionally charged love story set both in real life and in a dreamlike state known as Beulah.

It's hampered, however, by a series of voiceovers, played out while the actors stand on stage and listen. For minutes, the audience watches nothing. Despite these moments of unengaging inactivtity, this remains a beautiful story, gorgeously evoked through puppetry, to the extent that it moves the audience to tears.
