Step into the extraordinary with The Life Uncanny: A Puppet Séance, a mesmerizing live event brought to you from the Edge of the Veil. Join Puppet Artist and Amateur Medium Mike Oleon for an unforgettable evening where the boundaries between the human and spirit worlds blur.

Experience a one-of-a-kind talk show where fantastical puppets become vessels for spirits both familiar and unknown. Mike Oleon, alongside a diverse array of human guests—including academics, experts, faith leaders, and everyday individuals—explores the intersections of knowledge, faith, and art.

Every performance is a blend of puppet show, talk show, and ritual, creating a space where the improbable becomes possible. With an ever-growing array of objects—some rescued, some sculpted, some made of light and shadow—spirits choose their own vessels, influenced by the host and audience's vibes.
