A Pokemon-themed sock puppet show!

A Pokemon-themed show guarantees to have you fall off your chair in laughter

This one's a Pokémon story turned around on its head. Jessie and James, members of the evil Team Rocket, have been misunderstood for very long. A hoodlum called Ash Sockem snatched away the sockachu they'd been searching for a long, long time. What follows is Jessie and James's quest to retrieve their stolen friend, and a story filled with "heartbreak, deception and pokémon."

Intrigued yet? Then head to The Hive tomorrow for a Pokémon-themed sock puppet show being put together by Ashwin Choithramani and Raihaan Attawala of the Cold Feet Sock Puppet Troupe.

"For our shows, we like to draw inspiration from pop culture. The aim is to appeal to both kids and adults," says Choithramani. The troupe has previously performed sock puppet shows featuring Harry Potter characters, American gangsters, Star Wars characters, and President Obama.
