Review: THE DAISY THEATRE Is A Wild Ride

Ronnie Burkett's THE DAISY THEATRE is a unique night of live entertainment. His unscripted and over the top show featuring over forty marionette puppets will have you laughing out loud for the whole 90(ish) minute run. At the beginning of the show Ronnie explains that it may run over depending what crazy acts and puppets he decides to bring out - regardless, you are guaranteed to have a night you will never forget.

Ronnie manipulates and voices a wide range of marionettes, from staples like the wingless fairy Schnitzel to new and exciting characters in a variety of sketches, monologues and musical numbers. What makes the show special is Ronnie's ability to read his audience and craft a unique and different show every night. He pulled out a few jabs at the Toronto theatre scene that had the audience on their feet!

However, the true fun of the night comes when Ronnie scouts the audience for people to join him on stage. The intimate setting of the Factory Studio creates an environment where everyone feels comfortable to laugh, gasp and join in on the fun. Without giving away any spoilers, let's just say that Ronnie not only controls his puppets, but can manipulate his audience to do crazy (and hysterical) things too!

Premiering at the 2013 Luminato Festival was just the beginning for Ronnie Burkett's and his cast of puppets, which have now toured across the country. You do not want to miss their hilarious return to Toronto! Go in with an open mind and enjoy the wild ride! All Tickets are $30 and can be purchased in person at the box office, by calling 416.504.9971 or online at FactoryTheatre.ca.
