These guys do just that, it has to be said, as well as conveying stamina, whether twisting their testicles into a burger or re-enacting the Olympic Torch in a place where the sun doesn’t usually shine. If you think you can’t project sweetness while projecting your scrotum in front of 600 strangers (technology enables those in the cheaper seats to join in the cheers), perhaps you ought to remember the Walt Whitman dictum: “I celebrate myself.” Indeed. And while the (wonderfully named) Darren Chow does introduce the Australian duo as “One Long Dong” and “He Hung Too” - two characters that must have been cut from “The King and I” - the pair couldn’t be more innocent. The saving grace of “Puppetry” may reside in its freedom from the salacious: Morley and Friend are blokes you could bring home to mother - at least, until bath time. (Anyway, there are enough naked male shower scenes currently on view on London’s more highbrow stages to satisfy the trenchcoat brigade.)īut under the theory that nothing succeeds like a singular skill, there’s no denying that Morley and Friend may be on to something salable, even if ancillary merchandise is unlikely to include a do-it-yourself guide. That response could annul commercial prospects for a show that doesn’t so much give titillation-obsessed theatergoers a case of the jollies as it does the heebie-jeebies. Squeamish members (sorry) of the audience may feel slightly queasy after watching a tender part of the anatomy get such an unforgiving workout.
