Chicago Puppet Fest presents:
Maria Camia: New Mony!
January 21-22, 2022

In the human cloning family business, Allimah lives a quiet, regimented life with her parents. But while recovering in a hospital, her dreams slowly become reality and she finds herself connected to the prestigious Utopian planet called Aricama, a land of practice, play, and healing. New Mony! is a spiritual sci-fi puppet production exploring duality and ancestry that questions our current paradigm and visualizes our highest reality.
