Stuffed and Unstrung: Muppets take Manhattan!
Most of my fondest childhood memories tend to include The Muppets. I used to LOVE to sing-along to the movies and watch all the “behind the scenes” clips on TV. Before bed each night, I would listen to the Muppet Show record and even slept on Muppets sheets. Actually I still have them, I won’t let my mom throw them out.
I admire Jim Henson immensely; for his creativity, passion and commitment to his craft and company. I remember one time I was at MGM Studios in FL and saw Jim Henson in the cafeteria, I was too shy to go up to him. A few weeks later he passed away. Where am I going with this short trip down memory lane?
The Jim Henson Company presents a wonderful treat for adults like me that still have a big thing for Muppets.

STUFFED AND UNSTRUNG: It’s The Muppets. Off-Broadway. Improvised. For Adults. Produced by Henson Alternative, a division of the company that specifically creates adult-themed content. This show promises to provide laughs with a show that’s sure to be different every night of the week!
It’s The Muppets, meets Avenue Q, meets Upright Citizen Brigade. I AM SOLD.
Stuffed and Unstrung is now playing at the Union Square Theater in NYC NOW!
p.s. It appears as if all the Muppets involved are new, so you don’t have to worry about ruining your images of Kermi and Miss Piggy.
