The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Feeble Flame‘s first signature production is a handmade, all-ages puppet comedy about trying, failing, and finding your own way. Bitty is a bird with an egg, nowhere to put it, and no idea how every other bird makes nest-building look so easy. Follow Bitty through disastrous neighbor interactions, digging lessons with a prairie dog, and a run-in with a snake. With help from the audience, creative problem-solving, and determination, she finds the home she has been seeking. Expect slapstick, silly sound effects, and a set that has a life of its own.
