Squidsbury
July, 2022
Mercury Theatre, Baltimore

Tina the squid is miserable in her life as a sea creature who is forced to wear a human suit by her neurotic husband, Tim. After revealing her squiddy self to BFF Teensy, the two hatch a plot to get Tina the heck outta Squidsbury.

"There’s marvelous, inspiring work in this play by both the cast and the production team."

- MD Theatre Guide


"Go for the experience. Go for the unique takeaway. Go to see the phenomenal puppetry in action. Go to see a squid. Or be a squid. Be one with the squid? Find your home. Find your comfort in your own skin. Go see Squidsbury."  - Theatre Bloom
