Condemned to a Life is a dark comedy told with puppets — because puppets have a way of showing you that everything is going to be ok, bringing instant warmth even to a dark and scary room with nothing but a unicorn beach towel to sleep on. It's a story about surviving a childhood of locked rooms and neglect, a near-fatal car accident, the addiction that followed, and a brother serving life in prison.

​

But at its heart it's a show about love. What it means to love someone unconditionally. How we learn to ask for forgiveness — from others, and from ourselves. And how humor is sometimes the only way through.

​

It's a story many people can relate to. Anyone who has ever tried to love someone they couldn't save.
