CUMULO

Whimsical and violent, CUMULO is a puppet allegory that examines how we reclaim autonomy when life sends us into freefall. Protagonist Plum plummets through a skyscape of sentient clouds and creatures in an immersive journey of self-transformation, supported by a cotton candy set embedded with fans, and a large-scale mobile of floating cloud islands.

Co-produced by Concrete Temple Theatre.

CUMULO was made, in part, with support from Mitu’s Artists-At-Home program.

CUMULO was developed during Culture Lab LIC’s 2025 Emergence Artist Residency.

This project has been partially funded by a grant from The Puppeteers of America Endowment Fund.

CUMULO is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.

CUMULO is made possible with the generous support of the Jim Henson Foundation.
