Alfred, with a Knife

Alfred is a curiously marvelous boy, who performs wonderfully whimsical shows in his attic with a clownish companion, Mr. Lady. Together, the industrious duo presents a story displaying the magic of a tragic world. But, as Alfred and Mr. Lady are drawn further into the absurd situations and dangerous characters they play, as paint and cardboard turn to blood and bone, the two must fight to protect their cherished power of imagination.

This surprising, fun, and whimsical tale exalts the imagination as the most lovely of human possessions. Two performers play the entire cast of boisterous characters, and utilize projections, puppets, and an assortment of DIY scenic elements to draw the audience into a dreamy wonderland.
