Excerpt from their Facebook event page:
Inspired by “Manos – The Hands of Fate,” Mystery Science Theater 3000, and the story behind “Manos”, MANOS – THE HANDS OF FELT features characters, scenes and songs from the original movie, cut with a healthy dose of puppet mayhem.
A review from Seattlest.com:
For Manos – The Hands of Felt, Puppet This recreate the movie experience, down to the silent blips, and add the occasional sly reference to other pop-cultural phenomena, including Jim Henson’s popular creations, their company’s most obvious influence. Homages to Henson abound, from a pair of teenage lovers that closely resemble the allegedly closeted roommates from educational TV, to the insertion of the succession of quick jokes from The Muppet Show’s ballroom sequences in the middle of the large fight from the movie.
