####  **TDM Fall 2022 Production: *The Poacher***

 **About the Show**  
*The Poacher* is a visually evocative puppet show for discerning adult audiences. A young puppet seeks refuge from a difficult home-life by poaching mushrooms in a dark, but spirited forest. This impenetrable fortress hides a bright secret which our protagonist dares to disturb. Adapted from Ursula K Le Guin’s short story of the same name, *The Poacher* walks a sharp edge betwixt reality and fantasy, sleeping and waking, and the distinction between animate and inanimate. Featuring bunraku-style, shadow, tabletop, full body, and scenic puppetry.

 Adapted from the short story by Ursula K. Le Guin
