The Singing Picture Show #NYC

The Singing Picture Show is committed to presenting and promoting cantastoria as a contemporary puppet practice mixing music, object theater and traditional forms of picture performance. We seek to present the widest variety of puppetry that incorporates cantastoria traditions remaking them and transforming them into puppetry that sings its stories.
