A cryptic mystery! A dubious suspect! And a jury of puppets ready to crack the case! 12 Angry Puppets is a murder mystery puppet show where 12 puppet jurors have to decide the verdict of a murder case, where every single puppet is played by Adam Francis Proulx — who plays every character absolutely fantastically.

An old woman, a young boy, a nerdy law student, a burly Russian man — Proulx truly displays his remarkable vocal and acting range by acting as 12 entirely different puppets, doing incredible voices and spectacular characterization. Truly, he should consider being an audiobook narrator.

Each puppet consists of changing the facial features and outfit of one puppet! Proulx does this expertly, remaining in character as he changes the puppet’s character, allowing for the audience to remain immersed in the story and continue thoroughly enjoying ourselves, as we absolutely were.

This show was hilarious, interesting, and truly impressive to witness. I even forgot to take notes during the show as I was just having so much fun. Prepare yourself to enter the courtroom as you learn the backstory of each intriguing and humorous puppet, and get ready to fall out of your seat laughing as the mystery uncovers.
