NAUGHTY PUPPETEERS BRINGING THEIR ACT TO AMERICA

TORONTO (Wireless Flash) – An Australian novelty act is bringing new meaning to the term “Down Under” with a live stage show that features something called “puppetry of the penis.” Performance artists Simon Morley and David Friend star in a one-hour stage show in which they manipulate their genitals into 42 shapes resembling everything from animals to the Eiffel Tower. Morley insists the tricks don’t hurt, but says it’s important to warm up beforehand with some limbering exercises. The puppeteer pair will bring their unusual act to America in October and Morley says they hope to get some new recruits for shows in France, Spain and possibly Japan. He says the life of a penis puppeteer is pretty fun, but he admits his own mother still refuses to see him perform.
