Planets, Planets, Planets is an alt comedy troupe that uses improv, clown and sketch to unpack different astrological moments in time. The cast is composed of 10 femme and non-binary LA-based comedians and artists, each personifying a planet within an absurd zodiacal world. Using charts of individuals or the planetary alignments of the moment, every show is different and improvised around a unique theatrical map. Developed by a group of clowns who are also professional and/or serious students of astrology, the depth of astrological symbolism is met with the nonsense of comedic storytelling.
Freak Nature Puppets is an LA-based artist collective. As self taught puppeteers, their
work as 2024 artists-in-residence at the Elysian Theater confounded some, inspired
others, and was politely reviewed by their parents. In chaotic performances at venues
ranging from the Bob Baker Marionette Theater, to Golden Gate Park, to elementary
school auditoriums, Freak Nature always promotes the value of DIY art, a beginner's
mindset, and radical acts of collaboration.
