Reviews

Gospel Gus’s Godly Good Time Get-Together is hands-down the most elaborate large scale Incredible production design I’ve ever seen at a TCHF show…It’s so elaborate, it’s not just the gigantic puppets, the crazy set pieces, and the wild puppetry effects. It’s also a multi media extravaganza! Undoubtedly the largest spectacle you’re gonna see at the festival” – THE STAGES OF MN (Full Review Here!)

“It’s a little like Willy Wonka as these former kids disappear one by one – will anyone escape?! The puppets (designed by Marc Berg and Thalia Kostman) are truly impressive, detailed, and creepy, the blood and gore effects the most elaborate in my limited selection of shows (and smelled like chocolate), and a late appearance by Andrew Erskine Wheeler as the not-so-dead Gus is the icing on this horror cake.” – CHERRY AND SPOON (Full Review Here!)

Thank you!

A big thanks to Kyle Dekker and Hot Chocolate Media for asking us to collaborate and to bring the spectacle and puppetry to their show! Thank you to writer Sam Landman, and to all the amazing actors and artists that brought this creepy spectacle to life.
