The Matchbox Shows by Laura Heit

The 25th Anniversary!

2 minute clip of a 20 minute show.

“She deftly reveals the big emotions lurking within

Seemingly tiny details” Joel Del Signore The Gothamist

Laura Heit walks on stage with a glass of wine, wearing a sequined top. She takes her place behind a table and begins to bring to life her miniature cabaret. Playing the part of miniature raconteur and sequined performer, Laura Heit performs teeny tiny puppet shows inside matchboxes for The Matchbox Shows. The miniature stages come to life with crankies, fire, and pop-up paper engineering. The puppet shows are simultaneously projected on a screen behind the table, making the little tiny details of this portable variety show larger than life.

Performer, writer, and director: Laura Heit

Performing since 2000.
