The Mother Load

Is an ongoing puppet variety show performed live in Baltimore, hosted by Mother Goose. The show features one-off sketches and serial stories with a live score, everything from wacky jokes to some pretty serious business.

The series started as a way to get a lot of material written and performed quickly without losing our minds. Puppet shows can be read off a script, and there's room for improvisation. People can puppeteer who might not be ok with other kinds of performance. The variety format invites half-baked ideas and helps them grow.
