The point of life, with puppets

From Nights, 8:30 pm on 1 September 2025

The world is collapsing in on itself. What’s the point again?

That's the tag line for Let It Die, an existential puppet show playing this week at Basement Theatre.

Chye-Ling Huang is a puppeteer and the director of show and she joins Emile Donovan, along with her puppet, in the Auckland studio.
