Petting Zoo Blues


Just because local live theatres have to be empty during the pandemic doesn't mean that Loose Moose is sitting idle. Nope.

They've been doing a lot behind the scenes and one of the projects they're putting out there is the adult-themed puppet show 'Petting Zoo Blues'. They're calling it an 'episodic-puppet-trag-omedy'.

"The Capp family are the proud owners of ‘Noah’s Park’, the city’s oldest petting zoo. Their bitter rivals, the Monty’s came later to the petting zoo game, and ‘Zora’s Extreme Petting Zoo’ became all the rage. Recently the youngest of each family have just met and secretly fallen in love, and now must find a way to escape a pandemic lockdown and their feuding families to be together.

Lies, deceit, resentment, revenge, murder, and mayhem.  If they seem to be familiar themes, that’s because history keeps repeating itself."

The first episode is free, but you have to pay to watch the other 11 episodes. The price? $12. No, not per episode, for the whole thing. You can also choose to pay $25 in case you'd like to support the theatre just a bit more.

And they're not llamas, they're alpacas. (inside joke)
