About us
Strings Attached is a group for anyone interested in marionette theater, whether you're completely new to it or have been following the art form for years. We get together to watch performances, discuss what we're seeing, and learn about the craft from people who are actually doing it. If you've ever been mesmerized by the skill it takes to bring a wooden character to life, or if you're just curious about how it all works, this is the place for you.
We keep things pretty casual. Sometimes we'll screen a classic marionette production and talk about it afterward. Other times we'll have someone come show us their techniques or bring their puppets to demonstrate. We might visit local theaters that have marionette shows coming up, or we'll just gather somewhere comfortable to chat about the art form. The goal is to build a community of people who appreciate this craft and want to experience it together.
No experience necessary. You don't need to know anything about puppetry or theater to join us. We're all here because we find something special about marionettes—whether it's the history, the artistry, the storytelling, or just the pure weirdness and wonder of it all. If that sounds good to you, come hang out with us.
