A performer in the Sockrates Sock Puppet Carnival of Morals and Logic production Waiting for Spinal Wind.
The title may seem slightly threatening, until/unless you catch the reference: the comedic canon of mock documentary films (
Waiting for Guffman, This Is Spinal Tap, etc.) starring Christopher Guest, Harry Shearer, Michael McKean, Eugene Levy, Catherine O Hara, and many more talented cast members. An equally all-star lineup of Madison performers gathers virtually for a variety show featuring songs and skits from the films and other related material, all tied together by the inimitable Sockrates Sock Puppet Carnival of Morals and Logic. If you have not encountered the Sockrates troupe in the past, it s time to get acquainted. Donations benefit the Madison Children s Museum; the livestream premiere can be found on Facebook.
