Essential
and unmissable
glamour puppetry - in a colourless world, Maybellene brings joy and sparkle
to the oppressed. Hard to believe so much truth, wisdom and glitter can be crammed
into just one quarter of an hour.
‘Maybellene
is a pre-shrunk, high-fashion, glamour goddess for the new millennium. Camp
as a row of tents, her terrifically trivial fifteen minute MGM-style musicals
are performed in a puppet booth. She lives in a world of sequins and spangles,
love-hearts and flowers, lip-synching her way through a series of kitsch classics
inside a miniature world where dreams really do come true’.
TOTAL THEATRE
‘Small but perfectly formed... the kind of sexy blond cuteness that
would make Doris Day turn pale at the roots’.
THE HERALD
‘Barbie better watch her back: This girl is going to be big’.
