Join us for an outdoor drama of larger-than-life puppets and an array of other eye-catching performances. BareBones is excited to present its 29th Annual Extravaganza on the Midtown Greenway. A nearby parking ramp and bike racks lend to visitor convenience.

After two years of modified show formats, 2022 welcomes the return of BareBones' traditional puppet pageant — an outdoor drama consisting of larger-than-life puppetry, stilting, dance, fire, song, and music.

Annual Extravaganza
BareBones' premiere event is its Annual Halloween Extravaganza—an outdoor spectacle of giant puppets, fire, aerialists, and more! It's an autumn ritual that captures the spirit of the season and is a must-see Minnesota tradition.

Join the Community
BareBones relies heavily on community members to bring its Annual Extravaganza to life and keep the organization running the rest of the year! Make puppets, learn to stilt, help with marketing or fundraising, or be on staff!

Keep the Magic Going!
BareBones' Extravaganza was funded generously in part by a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council. The majority of our funding, however, comes from gate donations at our shows. BareBones has never sold tickets, as we believe our annual ritual should be available to all. We responded to the pandemic with show formats that didn't include a gate with in-person audiences, but we wanted to continue supporting artists and offer healing through art.
