Somehow, the things that we fear in our society are just a little less fearful when we get the story from puppets. That's right, puppets, fuzzy puppets.
Those are the medium of performance for the Rogue Valley-based theatre troupe Puppeteers for Fears.
The group's latest work, about artificial intelligence creeping further into human domains, is called "Robopocalypse: The Musical!" So fuzzy puppets AND songs.
Josh Gross, the coordinator of our "Rogue Sounds" segment, is the work's playwright. Alyssa Marie Mathews, the show's director and puppet maker, visits the studio with Josh.
