| - We've attended two Adult Puppet Slams. The first one was hilarious. The second one as all right, though not as fun as the first. I do enjoy the variety each show offers, with musical and varied puppet features in each show. It's a pretty intimate setting with a small-medium-ish size audience. It seems like a lot of people know each other, which adds to the intimacy of the experience.
The cost for the adult show is quite reasonable, especially if you pay in advance. I can't speak for the children's shows as I've never been.
The venue, as well as it's interesting history, is beautiful. And if you have interest in drinking alcohol in what is essentially a Mormon church (cultural hall, specifically, for those more acquainted with the faith), then this is your chance!
I'd definitely recommend attending at least one show. AND, if you time it right, you can stroll the Japanese Friendship garden (free on first Friday) and get dinner (I recommend El NorteƱo) before the show -- it makes for a nice evening walk.
