The UCONN Puppet Arts Program, in collaboration with the Puppeteers of America, will present an evening performance of Liars and Believers' acclaimed production of "Icarus," an original theatrical production with fantastical puppetry designed by Faye Dupras. In addition to promoting this show to theater audiences in Connecticut, it will also be seen by several hundred puppetry professionals and enthusiasts from across the country and around the world as part of the National Puppetry Festival 2015. This presentation also coincides with a year-long celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Puppet Arts department.
