Puppet Up! – Uncensored Returns for 3 Nights in March!

The Jim Henson Company's live stage show Puppet Up! – Uncensored is back for a batch of weekend performances this March at The Jim Henson Company's lot in Hollywood.

Puppet Up! – Uncensored promises to deliver a completely unique experience (it's never the same show twice!), and expertly combines dynamic and spontaneous off-the-cuff comedy with the unmatched talent and creativity of Henson puppeteers. Based on suggestions from the audience, the puppet anarchy – starring the Miskreant puppets - is two shows in one: the improvised puppet action projected live on screens above the stage, and the puppeteers racing around below in full view of the audience to bring it all to life. The show also features recreations of classic pieces originally created by Jim Henson, Jane Henson, and Frank Oz that haven't been seen by live audiences in decades.

The show will have five performances: Friday, March 4th at 8pm, Saturday, March 5th at 5pm & 9pm and Sunday, March 6th at 3pm & 7pm.

Available tickets include General Admission ($60) and VIP tickets ($150; includes priority seating, a souvenir, and a 90-minute preshow experience with a tour and question & answer with Brian Henson). A limited amount of advance purchase parking is also available for $15.00. Doors open and full cash bar will be available starting an hour before the show. Puppet Up! – Uncensored is not recommended for anyone under 16 and anyone under 14 will not be admitted.

Below is Phil the Groundhog (and Brian Henson) sharing the news about he upcoming shows:

Puppet Up! Uncensored Coming to Knott's Scary Farm!

The Jim Henson Company is bringing their adult improv show Puppet Up! Uncensored to Knott's "Scary Farm."

Knott's "Scary Farm" is the name Knott's Berry Farm calls itself from Sept 19-Nov 2 when they re-theme the park for Halloween. 

Puppet Up! Uncensored - Exclusively performing nightly at Knott's Scary Farm for the 2019 season, Puppet Up! Uncensored is an outrageous, off-the-cuff live show featuring a combination of improvisational comedy and the magic of puppetry performed by a cast of world-class comedian puppeteers from The Jim Henson Company. Created by legendary puppeteer and award-winning director Brian Henson and directed by Patrick Bristow (Ellen, Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Whose Line Is It Anyway?), Puppet Up! - Uncensored is no ordinary puppet show. In true uncensored form, the content is driven by audience suggestions and participation, topped with the zany antics and bawdy shenanigans of the colorful and brazen puppet cast. 

Puppet Up! - Uncensored will be performed three times each night at Knott's Scary Farm and is intended for mature audiences and is not recommended for children.

Puppet Up! Ends Vegas Run!

Sad news to report as Puppet Up's Las Vegas run has been cut short!

No reason was given for Henson improv puppet show to leave the strip early, but we've been told that it's a decision from the producers.

I'm sure the show will pop up again soon, but in the meantime if you want to see the dirty puppet show in person you better act fast. The show will end its run at the Venetian this Saturday!

Tickets can info can be found at Puppet Up's website.
