Experience the organized chaos of Murphi Cook's circus-lecture play Diablerie, or the Last Puppet Show

Theater | Pittsburgh | Pittsburgh City Paper: Dating back to the 18th century, the term “diablerie” refers to sorcery supposedly assisted by the Devil. It also means being reckless or wild in a charismatic way, a definition that better suits the new show from self-described “spectacle-maker” Murphi Cook.

Of her latest work. Diablerie, or the Last Puppet Show , at the Glitter Box Theater on April 26 and 27, Cook says, “The whole thing is sort of designed to be organized chaos.”
