DATES TIMES BOOKING

"Mad, bad and beautiful in equal measure"
**** The Guardian, Today's Picks

A man dances a love duet with a glass, a diva drinks to forget, Bud the action hero plumber drowns behind the bar, and Jack Belane, tiny detective, totally fucks up a case.

A barload of desperate puppetry inspired by the short stories of Charles Bukowski.

Beautiful, funny, poeic, moving gin-soaked cabaret of deadbeats and losers in a world where Puppetry meets Tom Waits. Your world will never be the same again.

WHAT THE CRITICS SAID:

"Stories... brought to quite stunning animated life by the gorgeous puppets of Blind Summit theatre"
***** Timeout Critic's Choice

"a transfixing show"
The Daily Telegraph

"if you are looking for original and adult entertainment, put this high on your list."
*** The Times

"The puppet truly took on a life of its own as, alone in the dark, he drank himself - and us - into magical oblivion"
*** The Metro, London

"Blind Summit brilliantly evokes the atmosphere of Bukowski’s America"
Fringe Report

"Take a note of the name. You’ll be hearing lots more from them"
**** The Herald

"This is what the Edinburgh festival is about: sitting in a cavern at 10.40 in the morning and watching unknowns blow an audience away with their talent."
Timeout, All the world's a stage

“Much more dark satirists than traditional puppeteers, Blind Summit will trash what you have come to expect from this art form. ”
*** The Metro Edinburgh, Make My Day

"Fabulous to see UK puppetry for grown ups take the fringe by storm!" Total Theatre

Shortlisted for a Total Theatre Award
