Everyone who knows me is aware of my adoration of science fiction so ET was a big favourite although it was Yoda which really blew me away. One of the exciting elements of the new tricks is the use of props to complete the picture. The traditional repertoire including the Baby Bird, the Hamburger (shown above), and the Loch Ness Monster featured along with a bunch of new tricks. Having gotten the gender genetalia issue out of the way the puppetry moved onto more abstract techniques. Brisco follows this up almost immediately with the Vagina and it is at this moment I exploded into my first round of riotous laughter - which almost brought on an asthma attack! It was so unexpected and so graphically accurate - and then Brisco proceeded to demonstrate a game we all like to play. Not so funny because it has been done so often. The show begins with a trick we have seen many times before - the Woman. It was a bit strange to hear the American accents of this new generation of puppeteers but given the scope and scale of the Penis machine it is not surprising.īrisco tells us "There are two rules for Puppetry of the Penis: You want to keep it from being sexual and you want to keep it from being gross." Binning and Brisco manage that balance well and in between belly-laughs I couldn't stop myself thinking 'how can that possibly not be painful?' My plus one assured me it wasn't but I am still not sure I believe him. ![]() I confess that I am one of the few people in the world who had not seen the show yet, so I was.excited(?).to get the opportunity to experience this unique form of puppetry which could only be invented by the Australian ocker. For one week only Binning and Brisco perform it for us at The Palms at Crown. Created for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival back in 1998, this show has grown exponentially over the years and is now a permanent Vegas show. If you haven't heard of the hit comedy show Puppetry of the Penis by now you haven't been living on planet Earth. ![]() Rich Binning, The Hamburger, and Barry Brisco Performed by: Rich Binning and Barry Brisco Created by: Simon Morley and David Friend ![]()
