The Puppets Are Alright is a celebration of all things puppetry. Featuring a triple bill of puppetry-led works, The Puppets Are Alright marks the final production of Ellison Tan and Myra Loke’s 2019-2023 stint as The Finger Players’ Co-Artistic Directors.
The show is a culmination of The Maker’s Lab from 2020 to 2023, an initiative by TFP to nurture and grow builders and designers of puppets and objects.

PARTING
A relationship has run its course and a man sits at his desk to finalize a separation.
MY FATHER THE AI MACHINE
She clings on to her dead husband’s memories, lovingly preserved in an electronic shell of him in her house. He lives on in a fictional world that she tenderly and tirelessly recreates, while their son is caught in between, unable to move on.
