The newest original work by Drama of Works

(with help from Rachel Carson, Tom Cade, T.S. Eliot, and many others...)

Coming fall of 2026 - our newest Henson award-winning production "The Falcon King." All puppets are made using only found, natural, and recycled materials. We hope this piece will inspire humanity to take better care of nature and each other.

The piece will premiere at Theaterlab on December 3rd, 2026. We need your help to make this production the best it possibly can be. We want to pay our creative partners: designers, actor/puppeteers, collaborators what they are worth! We wish to have the best puppets, costumes, sets, lighting and sound we possibly can! Please consider donating to this innovative piece of puppet theater!!!

The frogs tried to warn them, but when the birds' babies all start dying panic ensues and they don't know who's to blame or who to turn to. Are those mysterious canisters with three letters on them that starting showing up in the forest to blame? Will the King help save them or sit idly by, watching from his castle on the hill? In a world where humans have declared war on their main food source, the birds are left hoping they can find a miracle. Will humans learn from their arrogance or damn the birds to extinction?

Proud recipient of a 2025 Henson Foundation Workshop Grant and 2026 Production Grant.
Drama of Works was also awarded an ART/NY Creative Fund grant for their season.
