About this Event
Written by award winning Hudson Valley author and playwright Gwynne Watkins, directed by Buffy Maria Favata and accompanied by the Beacon Rising Choir, God's Puppets tells the story of Pauline, a young Presbyterian pastor who revives the church’s long-dead puppet ministry as a means to address her being treated differently than her pastor husband because she's a woman. Using puppets like the creepy singing child “Little Ruthie” to tell stories about women in the Bible, Pauline doesn’t realize the chaos her feminist puppet ministry will create in both the church and her marriage. Launching her into an unanticipated crisis of faith, Pauline has to confront the question: Is God pulling the strings or someone else?
