We are a world-renowned theater recognized for our large scale puppets and activism. We have brought some of the most talented puppeteers to Minneapolis while maintaining a strong connection to the local puppet community.

In the Heart of the Beast (HOBT) is a community of artists working within our larger community to create magic together. We make puppets large and small, monstrous, beautiful, silly, human, plant, animal, you name it. We use gesture, voice, form, and color, giving life to puppets that help tell stories to represent the world as it is and as we dream it could be.
