El Retablillo de Don Cristobal

The Puppet Play of Don Cristobal

Short Film, 40 Min. 

Live Action & Animation

Our award-winning adaptation of the play El Retablillo de Don Cristóbal. Originally written for puppets by world-renowned playwright Federico Garcia Lorca, this play was adapted for actors by Ecuador’s most famous playwright José Martínez Queirolo.

 

A raunchy farce, chock-full of Lorca’s trademark feminist undertones, this story follows an impotent rich man in his acquisition of a beautiful and unfortunately insatiable bride. Through greedy mothers, horny priests, and more than one flying mule, this puppet play for grown-ups spells out a lesson that bears repeating in these crazy times: karma’s a b#$ch.

Language: Spanish with English Subtitles

The Empress’s New Clothes

Short Film

Drag Performance & Animation

In a queer re-telling of the Hans Christian Andersen classic, the empress of a run-down city concludes that the best way to help her people is to throw an extravagant gala to “raise awareness.” But, when two impeccably dressed swindlers offer to make her a gown that only empathetic people can see, her true character is…how shall we say…exposed.

Puppetry & Animation

Famous Lake Park, like most things named famous, is not. The rides are outdated and dilapidated, the eccentric owner values amusement more than human life, and the riffraff staff has a debilitating morale problem. Oh yes, and the Lake is drying up due to global warming.


In an ode to American debauchery, Famous Lake Park is a jolly jaunt through the agonizing death of the American Dream.
