A daring work of puppetry, full of beautiful images, junk music and object manipulation.

HopStops

When the world breaks, someone has to fix it. In this comedy in a box, audiences are invited into a fragile universe of cardboard, where the Baffo Brothers keep the sun running on schedule, negotiate with a demanding neighbor and attempt to keep a changing world from coming apart. 

Modern Times Theater's re-envisioning of classic hand puppet forms is digital entertainment as it was meant to be: two hands, ten fingers and no camera tricks. 

Puppeteered by Justin Lander and directed by Rose Friedman, The Baffo Box Show was supported by a 2022 Family Grant from the Jim Henson Foundation.

Rose Friedman studied at the Moscow Art Theater and New School University and worked as a performer and workshop leader with Bread and Puppet Theater for over a decade.

Justin Lander is a co-founder of Modern Times Theater and the emcee of Vermont Vaudeville. He teaches workshops for kids and adults in puppetry, junk music and improv comedy, and is an alum of the Bread and Puppet.
