Le Petomane Theatre Ensemble takes Punch and Judy as inspiration in its latest original comedy No Punchbacks, which opens this week at The Bard's Town.
No Punchbacks will take place Feb. 7-11 and 13-17 at 7:30 p.m. each night. All performances are to happen at The Bard's Town, located at 1801 Bardstown Road [4] in the Highlands area of Louisville.
Tickets for each show are on what Le Petomane calls a "sliding scale", meaning audiences can pay between $8-$20 per person depending on what is affordable to that person. Reservations can be made by e-mailing Le Petomane at Us@LePetomane.org [5] or calling 502-609-2520. Dinner reservations, which are separate from the show, can be made by calling The Bard's Town [6] at 502-749-5275.
No Punchbacks is a Le Petomane Theatre Ensemble original comedy that takes on the traditions of Punch and Judy, a popular puppet show featuring the violently-bent Mr. Punch and wife Judy or other characters. Le Petomane brings forth masks, some dancing, comedy, music, and slapstick violence to the show, leading to a night of unique comedy.
More information on the show can be found at the Le Petomane Theatre Ensemble [7] website.
