Hi
My name is Ricki (Geppetto) Vincent and I’m the Creator/Producer of “A Night at Miss MiMi’s”
an all puppet burlesque show. This crazy cabaret has 8 wild acts that pay homage to the comedy,
music, and dance of the old time Burly-Q’s, as well as the new style burlesque that has been
popularized in clubs from coast to coast. All performed by 36” anthropomorphic puppets.
Due to the unique nature of the show combined with the sudden surge of interest in old time
burlesque and vaudeville shows, this performance will appeal to a wide variety people from
18 to 80.
The show has been a year in the making and has been funded through a substantial performing arts grant from the Creative Capital Foundation in New York City. The performance is a mixture of western Rod Puppetry and Japanese style Bunraku where Mimi's puppeteers are in plain sight, dressed in black clothes and hoods. It takes two to three puppeteers to put the dancers through their paces so the audience has the opportunity to see the teamwork and fluid movement it takes to bring each character to life. I feel this style makes the experience not only visually entertaining but enlightening as well.
Finally, Miss MiMi’s can be staged in virtually any sized venue, from Art Gallery to
500 Seat Theater we can make it work! For smaller venues all that’s needed is a 10x12’
space with ceilings as low as 10’. For the larger rooms, we carry a DLP video projector
that’s capable of making every seat in the house a front row ticket.
Mimi’s is currently looking for bookings on the West coast for November thru December
2006 to fill in some empty spots in our calendar. After that, all points east after January
of 2007. If you’d like to book the hottest little show in the world feel free to contact
me at bookings@geppettodreams.com admin@geppettodreams.co and I’ll be happy to send
you a PR pack.
Hope to be hearing from you soon…
