Sugar Mud

Rarely do you arrive in a theater and get transported both gently and instantaneously. Part magical realism, part grandma hang time - Meat made us all familiars in this strangely beautiful space. ... full review

Triumphant and funny and cool and raw and smart and the country representation I crave in the avant garde clown arena ... full review

Such a complete vision from tip to tail. Every moment of the show felt both perfectly honed from much practice and also live in the moment. By the time it was over everyone in that room was my cousin, and I dang loved them, all thanks to Meat's gentle shepherding and world building.... full review

Smart, beautifully heartfelt & SUPER silly fun! I could watch it again and again and again! ... full review

Raw, beautiful magical realism. I loved how the artist brought in their own personal story while taking us to another time and place (and plane?) It was well-written, playful, and deep. ... full review

Funny, unique, great acting/writing/set design and best of all honest in a way that it feels like it’s talking directly to you. Meat is so talented, and this show is the perfect encapsulation of everything that makes them special. I loved this show, to see this show. ... full review

It gets biblical! It gets absurd! It gets raw! It gets sad! It’s got it all, all on a dirt clod. ... full review

Sugar Mud absolutely blew me away. This is clown, character and proessing family and personal trauma at one of it shighest levels. Everything from the set (wow) to the costumes to the locked in performance. Each character had such well defined points of view, showing us a peak behind the curtain into Meat's life. I really found myself so spellbound by this show. It was amazing!... full review

The rarest of rarities. There are shows where you are aware the whole time you're watching a show and there are shows where you are utterly moved away from traditional time and space. I got lost within this show's magic - its elegant movement, its crunchy weird comedy, its ethereal exploration of familial ick and heart - this is a special show.... full review

What a beautiful, hilarious and transcendent show. Meat is such a playful and engaging performer, this show flew by and covered so much ground. There’s humor, generational trauma, and a very important wrench. And you know I love a good dust bowl story. ... full review
