Critical Acclaim for Luna Theatre:

May 2004 Voice Choice in the Village Voice.

Luna Theatre [is] a Somerville-based puppetry troupe with a taste for experiment and an eye on the grown-up market...

Posner [is] a leader in Bostons puppetry subculture...

Theatres meant to be about transformations and magic, [Posner] says... Puppetry is a way of reclaiming the theatrical.

Shadow puppetry is an age-old trick that becomes a vehicle for sweet humor and life's hard truths on Luna Theatre's stage. Dassia Posner and Bonnie Duncan perform thought-provoking shadow, rod, giant, and mask puppetry solely for adults...Their captivating repertoire ranges from abstract scenes to whimsical vignettes and absurdist plays often inspired by Slavic tales and turn-of-the-century Russian puppet cabaret.

Luna Theatre [has] slightly surreal shadow-puppetry... that shows dawns and sunsets in an unusual metropolis where buildings dance, traffic swims, and tiny figures walk through opening and shutting doors.
