Puppetry of the Penis is a comedic live performance-art show featuring a series of genital contortions. The show was initially conceived as the title of a highbrow art calendar released by Australian Simon Morley in 1996. The calendar showcased twelve penis "installations" (the manipulation of male genitalia into a variety of recognisable forms). In response to increasing requests for live demonstrations, in 1997 Morley enlisted fellow Australian, David "Friendy" Friend, to devise a performance show consisting of body-based genital comedy.

dbo:abstract
  • Puppetry of the Penis or the Ancient Art of Genital Origami (übersetzt etwa „Penis-Puppenspiel oder die uralte Kunst des Genitalorigami“) ist eine australische Bühnenperformance, bei der die Darsteller mittels ihres Penis, ihrer Hoden sowie der Vorhaut verschiedene „Figuren“ darstellen. Zum ersten Mal im Jahr 1998 in Melbourne im Rahmen des Melbourne International Comedy Festival aufgeführt, etablierte sich die von David Friend und Simon Morley erfundene Show auf vielen Bühnen weltweit. Wie bei anderen erfolgreichen Bühnenshows auch (etwa die Blue Man Group oder Cirque du Soleil) gibt es weltweit mehrere Ensembles (2008: sechs), die im Franchise-System unter dem Namen „Puppetry of the Penis“ auftreten. Neben den Tourneen tritt die Show regelmäßig bei internationalen Festivals (wie etwa dem Edinburgh Festival Fringe) auf. In London lief die Show über fünf Monate im West End Whitehall Theatre, in New York über ein Jahr am Broadway. Auch zu privaten Anlässen, etwa der Hen Night, können Auftritte gebucht werden. Die Show und eine Australientournee sind die Grundlage für den Dokumentarfilm „Tackle Happy“ (2000) von Mick Molloy. (de)
  • Puppetry of the Penis is a comedic live performance-art show featuring a series of genital contortions. The show was initially conceived as the title of a highbrow art calendar released by Australian Simon Morley in 1996. The calendar showcased twelve penis "installations" (the manipulation of male genitalia into a variety of recognisable forms). In response to increasing requests for live demonstrations, in 1997 Morley enlisted fellow Australian, David "Friendy" Friend, to devise a performance show consisting of body-based genital comedy. The show involves two nude men who bend, twist, and fold their penises and scrotums into various shapes. The theatrical contortion of the male genitalia (penis, scrotum, and testicles) accompanied by comedic narration has since spread internationally. It is humorously termed "dick trick" or "genital origami," referring to the flexibility of the human penis, testicles and scrotum. Puppetry of the Penis was first performed on stage at the 1998 Melbourne International Comedy Festival in Australia, featuring the creators, Morley and Friend, as the premiere cast. The show has since appeared on the international stage, featuring productions in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Europe, Canada, the United States, South Africa and Argentina. The initial Australian tour was the subject of Australian comedian Mick Molloy's 2000 documentary Tackle Happy. The duo has recruited supporting production teams and actors across Australia, the UK and the U.S., allowing international performance demands to be met. Due to the success of the show, the business was expanded to cater for private parties around Australia. A Puppetry of the Penis TV special has aired in Australia on One. (en)
