Celebrating 25 years of touring its brand of lunatic fringe theatre throughout the world in over thirteen languages, Green Ginger released its newest puppet show in 2005 titled "Rust". After selling out many shows around the globe including: Paris, Madrid, Brussels, Stockholm, Amsterdam and Lisbon, the company brought the performance back to the Tobacco Factory in the UK. Rust is directed by Flick Ferdinando and has an original soundtrack by Simon Preston. Flick recently toured with Peepolykus in "Rhinoceros". The story is about two pirate radio stations anchored in the same murky coastal waters. One transmits from a lightship, while its arch-rival broadcasts from a submarine lurking just beneath the oil-slicked surface. Rust is a fast-moving story of truth and treachery, piracy and passion, sex, death and great music; all trademarks of Green Ginger. The company is also known for its grotesque puppets, animated and elaborate sets, and absurd dark humor. If this show ever came to the Twin Cities, I would have the first ticket!
