“[B]rainchild of co-artistic director Claire Saxe…the show’s more daring pieces invite a new kind of puppet-viewing, one that never hides the hand pulling the strings” - The Chicago Reader

“Claire Elizabeth Saxe delivers a revelatory, multilayered performance." - The Chicago Reader

About the Show:

OUT WITH IT tells a playful and lyrical tale about holding things in and letting things go. Our fastidious protagonist seeks to keep her space in order, while chaos creeps in at every turn. In a relentless –and often messy– battle of wills between control and wildness, one thing is clear: there’s only room on this stage for one of them…

In the languages of found-object puppetry, clown, and visual poetry, OUT WITH IT is heartfelt, absurd, and delightfully relatable.
