Myrtle and Gertrude are lesbian Xmas stockings about to have a big fabulous public wedding in Narnia. It would seem like this is an easy thing to do, but not really. Like all weddings, complications arise, involving bears, trees, napkin rings, vikings, famous authors, corn, and Silverlake’s Most Well-Adjusted Family.

Our strange and sensational holiday entertainment puppet show is exceptionally weird, wonderful, and warm. Our puppeteers act, sing, dance, and throw things at you, accompanied by our band, The Dinglebell Hollies, playing live seasonal tunes.

There will be refreshments for all ages in our lobby to be enjoyed before and after the show. We’ll also have our fun and festive merch.

If you’d like a little nip, head next door to the Broadwater Plunge Bar (21+ only).

See us at the Broadwater Blackbox Theater 6322 Santa Monica Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90038

There’s plenty of street parking near and around the theater. (Please be mindful of parking signs.)

The Holiday Show is Here!

SparkleBlob and Automata present:

SparkleBlob’s Doublewide Roadside Holiday Snowflake Show!

Join Silverlake’s most well-adjusted family as they spend their holiday vacation in the rustic, arid climate of the California desert, where the tumbleweeds tumble, and murmurs on the wind blow cool wind through your hair. Young Judy Haversham would love to be just about anywhere else, and is not in the mood for a journey encompassing a curious mixture of reality and imagination, which is, of course, just fine.

SparkleBlob’s 6th annual Holiday Puppet Show delivers expressly to you a hilarious and somewhat existential musical excursion through time and space that will warm your heart into happy holiday goop! Presented at Automata in exciting and scenic Chinatown, the show will once again include before and after rides on the famed ‘trike’ plus delicious pre and after show treats and libations. Original and reproductions of “Doublewide Roadside Show Art” will be available for purchase. Written by the superbly talented Julianna (JP) Parr and Shannon Gallagher and directed by JP, the show will also feature puppets of original design, a rockin’ cast and The DingleBell Hollies (live band), and surprises galore! Don’t miss the fun–adults and kids alike will love the show!
