- and don’t we love it? I was instantly intrigued by Meow Meow’s glamour, and the promise of her voice, and will be basking in both later this week, in Ann Arbor. Partly because, well, doesn’t it look like a fabulous evening? and partly because the trailer was such a rush – that vision of the book revisioned – that it got me thinking about a stage show of some kind, a presentation. . . Not necessarily of the book itself, the novel’s narrative, but a piece that would be at home in the home of the Poppy, a kind of sideways sidebar celebration. . . Give a puppet an inch, see, and onstage it turns into a mile.
