The Vertigo of Sheep

Written, Built & Performed by
Andrew Kim & Kathy Bradley

A well-meaning but unreliable clown attempts to explain the Book of Genesis. Were Adam and Eve set up to fail? Did Abraham truly intend to sacrifice his son? Why did Lot's wife really turn into a pillar of salt? Through household objects, puppets, physical theater and live music, Thingumajig Theatre creates a world where profane objects are sacred and the sacred is hilarious.

Awarded a 2006
Citation of Excellence
by UNIMA-USA

"Spectacular integration of movement, music and set design. Both artists were unmatched in their performing skills."

"...You're struck by the extraordinary quality of the production values....Kim seamlessly wrought uber-familiar Bible stories some new and compelling existential questions for me, and now I can't wait to see more of his work."
