Boy Crazy is an autobiographical solo puppet show that uses shadow puppetry, toy theater, glow sticks, and a live feed camera to animate the Adventures of a Queer Engaged Divorced Ex-Evangelical Widow. Getting married at 22 is not so weird when you’re an evangelical from Tennessee. Getting divorced at 26, re-engaged at 29, widowed at 30, re-engaged at 32, and then realizing that you’re queer at 35? Not! Not as much.
