An absurd puppet musical exploring the lives of three misfits on their quest to make it as street performers in the French Quarter of New Orleans. The Trio gets into all sorts of shenanigans, from getting addicted to “Crusties Hotdog Stand” , to refuting allegations of eating an ex lovers head. The story is narrated by Detective Bark, who uses his keen senses and logical mind to sniff out clues from the baffling events that have occurred. Will the creatures find fame? Or will struggles between the bandmates stop them from getting picked up by a label? Is their lead glockenspiel a blood thirsty diva? Will Detective Bark be able to crack this case wide open, and earn the title “GOOD BOY”? All these questions answered and more in The Nocturnal Creatures Show!!
