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.

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.
