Presented by The Flying Buttresses
A delightful and engaging performance as special effects puppetry meets award winning improvisation comedy.
Hodman and Sally are tiny creatures with big personalities! Hailing from Oblivia and remaining Oblivious to this day, Hodman and Sally have shouldered their emotional baggage and set out on an adventure. Having lived by themselves for hundreds of years, these elderly explorers are ready to make friends. They have a lot on their backs and a lot on their minds. You may find that they talk your ear off but then what would you expect from a couple of ramblers. Once you’ve seen the world through their eyes you’ll never look at your town the same way.
