News flash! The near future! New developments in artificial intelligence have gone… not as planned. And now the robots are taking over—unless plucky teen hacker, Jolie Daniels, screen-name Ha.G., and the bot she made from spare parts from her parent’s garage, can stop the armies of sentient appliances she accidentally loosed on the world. From Puppeteers for Fears, the company that brought you "Cthulhu: the Musical!," and "The Cabaret at the End of the World," comes a hilarious cyberpunk fever-dream: "ROBOPOCALYPSE: The Musical!" Featuring thirteen new songs, an analog synthesizer driven score, an all-puppet cast, more multimedia elements than you can shake a stick at, and a wickedly stylish 1980s visual aesthetic, "ROBOPOCALYPSE: The Musical!" is Puppeteers for Fears’ most ambitious show ever, and is sure to dazzle and astonish. Written and composed by Josh Gross. Directed by Hunter Prutch. Starring Alyssa Mathews, Forest Gilpin, Owen Webb, Rachel Routh, Alex Giorgi, Brianca Knight, and featuring special musical guest, Blunderbusst. Puppeteers for Fears is an Oregon-based comedy troupe, specializing in original horror and science fiction rock’n’roll musicals performed with puppets. The company was founded as a one-night-only cabaret show for Halloween 2015, but was so popular that it kept going and never looked back. In the time since, PFF has written and performed a half-dozen original feature musicals covering everything from supernatural monsters to killer robots to lonely sasquatches, performed all over the US on six tours, and sold out venues nationwide with its innovative and hilarious combination of puppetry, video, and live music.
