John Lewandowski

Since becoming Artistic Director of Madcap Productions Puppet Theatre in 2006, John Lewandowski has made it his mission to expand the local audience for puppetry by collaborating with other arts organizations, bringing fans of classical music, theatre and puppetry all into the same space. Local examples include last season’s “pocket opera” with the Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra and the production of “The Dragon”, a play for adult audiences, with Know Theatre Tribe. These multi-organziational experiences connect artists and audiences across disciplines and neighborhoods, encouraging Westside fans of Madcap to visit venues in Downtown Cincinnati.
