ART

Short Works

generally 7 minutes long

For many years I have performed short form puppetry at cabaret events around the city.

The performance spaces are and were primarily in Greenwich Village, the Lower East Side, Williamsburg, and DUMBO.


"In the early 2000s, I often carried piles of puppets on foot around the city, stopping every block or so to rest my arms."


--- Kate Brehm


Some include: CBGBs Gallery, PS122, The Bowery Poetry Club, Here Arts Center, Galapagos Art Space, The Parkside Lounge, The Tank, One Arm Red, Triskelion Arts Space, and Minerva Durham's Spring Studio.

During the pandemic of 2020 I created and performed puppet shows for online events including, The Great Small Works Virtual Toy Theater Festival, Gemini and Scorpio's Easter Bonnet celebration, the Center at Westpark's Puppet non-Slam, and Google's internal Friday Afternoon Summer Arts
