Shelly and Zipper is a shadow puppet comic strip about a twenty-year-old cat and seventeen-year-old red-eared slider turtle,
based on real life pets at the Sedgwick household in Worcester, Massachusetts. Each short episode is accompanied
by a hilarious (and beautiful) collage of live and recorded music. The Shelly and Zipper Show makes its home in a cozy upstairs room at the Charlestown Working Theater. Teachers: If you are interested in scheduling a field trip to the Shelly and Zipper Show, marji.e.gere at gmail dot com for details. We perform and lead puppet-building workshops for students of all ages. Video clip: It's Zipper's twentieth birthday! Shelly wants to celebrate with him, but all Zipper wants to do is sleep.
