Subject: [Puptcrit] Carnival of Samhain 2007 opens tonight in NYC!


Hey NYC-area puppetcritters: our 6th annual Carnival of Samhain
(proud to extend the Halloween holiday) opens tonight on the
lower east side! (If anyone didn't see it at the PofA fest or
wants to see it again, Sarah Frechette's shadow show "Haunted
Projectile" plays Fri, Sat and Sun) 

On November 1st through the 4th, Drama of Works will once again
extend the Halloween holiday, terrorizing unsuspecting New
Yorkers with the Carnival of Samhain (pronounced Sowe-Wen).
Abrons Arts Center will host the spooky extravaganza in their
Experimental Theater. The program is composed mostly of puppet
pieces (with an emphasis placed on variety), as well as dance,
magic, comedy and live music. For full schedule and details
please visit http://www.dramaofworks.com
