"I am an Insect: A Fluttering Processionary of Infinitesimal Ideas"
Created by Jan Burger and Donovan Zimmerman
Presented in the Forest Theatre and NC Museum of Art in Aug and Sept of 2008. Paperhand Puppet Intervention's 9th annual summer puppet extravaganza!
The cardboard constructionists of Paperhand investigate the freakishly fantastic whimsical world of the small. Insects, bugs, and other arthropods come to life amidst towering grasses and flowers.Dung Beetles, millipedes, and grasshoppers on bikes; caterpillars, butterflies, ants and much more!Myriad forms unfold over vast ages of time, when we arrive in the 19th century backyard of Henri Fabre.See, the gigantically unexpected. Hear the sounds of the spiraling universe. Join the Insect Insurrection!They (the insects) can survive without us, but could we live without them?
