The camp macabre world of Edward Gorey RETURNS in this absurdist dark comedy sequel told through puppetry, clowning, dance, and live music.
About this Event

The Uncanny Attic returns with its THIRD installment of death, disaster, and unmitigated literary nonsense. Inspired by the world of Edward Gorey, the citizens of Willowdale are brought to life, then almost immediately to death by way of killer bees, poisonous cocktails, a rusty axe, and other lethal ingestibles.

The Uncanny Attic is an absurdist dark comedy told through puppetry, clowning, dance, live music and an unhealthy dose of death - co-created and co-produced by The Bunny Royale (Jennifer Friedrich) and Bazuka Joe.

In The Uncanny Attic, catastrophic events happen with utter regularity and its inhabitants, particularly children, are an endangered species. The Uncanny Attic cast includes Jill Summers, Susie Kirkwood, Josh Levine, Mackenzie Shapiro, Derry Eire, Marla Wyrd, Lady Ve’Lush, Mz Love, Luc Ami, Karma Carnelian, Vixxie Velvet, and Vixen Violencia. Technical Director ThomAss Edison, Make-up Design Harley GoLightlly, Stop Motion Animation Susie Kirkwood, Animation Soundtrack Liam Davis, Cast Photographer Jess Genito.
