Carousel

Carousel has also joined forces with The Center for Cartoon Studies , Nickelodeon Magazine, and various comics anthologies (including the Society of Illustrators Comic and Cartoon Art Annual , Little Nemo: Dream Another Dream , Hotwire , and Typhon ) to produce special theme shows. There have been collaborations on music shows with The Walking Hell... os and other bands. Kids shows, co-hosted with Neil Numberman , are part of the mix, too. The presentations are a hybrid, sometimes reminiscent of a radio show (usually with live narration, often with music and sound effects) combined with wildly creative imagery. From stick figures, to lush illustrations, to the occasional photograph, Carousel embraces all forms of visual storytelling. Some performers have also incorporated live drawing and painting, musicians, shadow puppets, video game environments, illustrated scrolls, drag, and dance into the show. While many presentations have a sense of humor, the stories vary greatly in theme; some are autobiographical, some historical or educational, and others are philosophical or fanciful.
