MY FATHER WAS A FRENCHMAN

"MY FATHER WAS A FRENCHMAN" is a collection of mystical short 'story plays' written for marionettes- containing a Vaudvillian flair, whimsey and Old World flavor. The artiste uses risqué humor, as she transforms adversities unfortunate experiences into fanciful follies!
This introduction to 'Urban Magical Realism' portrays a juxtaposition between harsh reality and creative imagination- revealing serendipitous wonderment in inner city life.

Gareth England chooses esoteric, short 'story plays' for those puppet-makers and puppeteers who still create and work with Old World marionettes- both in theatre groups and also playwrights- for their 'play performances'.
For England, the craft of string puppetry is truly still an artist(e)s' treasure!
