When Jim Henson started making puppets in the 1960s, no one questioned him. Contemporary puppeteer Erik Sanko knows his plight — he plays with dolls.

“The Fortune Teller” is Sanko’s creation. It will be performed at UCLA’s Freud Playhouse until Oct. 28\. For show times, contact the UCLA Central Ticket Office at (310) 825.2101.

With music composed by Danny Elfman and Erik Sanko, the performance should be a great one, no strings attached.
