Red Herring Puppets
6th Annual
Tucson Puppet Cabaret

Runs December 4-6, 2026

Join us for the sixth annual Tucson Puppet Cabaret. Enjoy a variety of vignettes for adults performed by musicians, actors, and puppeteers. Be prepared to laugh, reflect, shed a few tears, ponder the uncertainty of existence… and laugh some more!  

The cabaret is a weekend of curated short-form puppetry acts intended for adult audiences. The Tucson Puppet Cabaret is part of a global PUPPET SLAM NETWORK  sponsored in part by Heather Henson's IBEX Puppetry.  

Puppets of all shapes, styles, and sizes will take to the stage in acts created by artists from not only our local Tucson community, but from across the United States!
