About the Show

Over 11 years and 570 episodes, John Rabe and Team Off-Ramp scoured SoCal for the people, places, and ideas whose stories needed to be told, and the show became a love-letter to Los Angeles. Now, John is sharing selections from the Off-Ramp vault to help you explore this imperfect paradise.

Puppets on the 405: Joel Kyack's Superclogger
superclogger

If you were stuck in traffic this week you might have already seen this: a white Mazda pickup with puppets--that's right, puppets--performing mini-plays for commuters all over the LA area. As it turns out, the puppet show is a performance art piece called Superclogger. It's by Joel Kyack and curated by LAXART's Cesar Garcia. If you haven't seen it yet, don't worry: the piece expected to continue through late September on freeways all over the Southland. Off-Ramp's Kevin Ferguson stopped by Kyack's studio to find out more. See below for a video of one of Kyack's puppet performances!
