Since 2011, The Austin Puppet Incident has presented short works by a variety of artists in an annual cabaret-style festival. This year, we look back at some of the standout performances from the last decade. It will be an evening of funny, moving, weird, and thoughtful performances, recorded at live events with live audiences, and released for the first time to the public, with hosts Caroline Reck, Artistic Director of Glass Half Full Theatre of Objects and Ideas, and Connor Hopkins, Artistic Director and Janitor of Trouble Puppet Theater Company.

The event will be streaming from Austin Puppet Incident YouTube channel.
