- Chloe Paisley from Brown University-Watch Chloe create a puppet show out of mid-air.
- And the latest installment of The Adventures of Fat Nancy & Crisco- Fat Nancy & Crisco audition for a Musical!
- Charming and personable musical interludes provided by:Lindsay Adler, Multi-instrumentalist/Vocalist/Composer, well known for her children's performances as "Mother Nature." Come and fool with "Mother Nature" in this adult-children's version!
/BfaT/, as the salon is called by its die-hard patrons, is the brainchild of Vanessa Gilbert, and Jeremy Woodward. Since the day /Blood from a Turnip/ began in February of 1997, /BfaT/ has offered professional puppeteers and those new to the art form an opportunity to present big stories, in miniature. Co-curated by Gilbert, and Boston-based, electronic puppeteer Evan O’Television /BFaT/ continues to redefine itself, but refuses to grow up.
