THE CABINET RETURNS

The infamous production Frank Maugeri made two decades ago at Redmoon Theater, which remained Redmoon's most highly acclaimed and longest-running indoor production in the history of that company. Strategically, we are doing one week of the Chicago International Puppetry Festival to create the initial excitement to accomplish a self-produced, four-week run in October 2025!

The 2025 Cabinet is collectively remade and directed by Corrie Bessie, Jessie Mooney Bullock, Kass Copeland, Gabrielle Frabotta, Janet Eckleberger, Danielle Gennaoui, Shawn Ketchum Johnson, David Christopher Krause, Frank Maugeri, Mark Messing, Abby Palen, Sion Xavier Oriri, Cameron Smith, and Dustin Valenta.

About Cabinet of Curiosity

Founded in 2017, Cabinet of Curiosity is a nonprofit theater that creates original celebrations and productions. Cabinet uses sophisticated puppetry and handmade devices to develop interactive experiences and events.

We believe that the act of celebration is a social imperative. We use celebration to tackle isolation, facilitate dialogue, inspire hope and humor, create beauty where others may fail to see it, and ignite sincere collaborations. We focus on creating new gatherings, ceremonies, and rituals that promote connection amongst people from different backgrounds and lived experiences.
