The Cashore
Marionettes redefine the art of puppetry through exceptional artistry,
grace, and refinement of movement and have thrilled audiences
throughout the world In the performances, Joseph Cashore presents
his collection of marionette masterworks. Characters of depth,
integrity, and humanity are portrayed in a way unlike anything
else in theater today. The performance is a series of comic and
poignant scenes taken from everyday life and set to music by composers
such as Beethoven, Vivaldi, Strauss, and Copland. Through a combination
of virtuoso manipulation, humor, pathos, classic music, and poetic
insight, the Cashore Marionettes take the audience on a journey
that celebrates the richness of life.
“The
quality of manipulation is unparalleled and the effect upon the
audience is powerful.” The Center of the Contemporary Arts,
St. Louis
