Dumbstruck

Poster

At the annual Vent Haven Convention in Ft. Mitchell, Kentucky, ventriloquism capital of the world, director Mark Goffman discovers five extraordinary characters and their deeply human and touching stories: Kim, a former beauty queen; Dan, a thriving cruise ship performer; Dylan, an introverted 13-year-old; Wilma a quirky former security guard; and Terry, a small-time performer turned America’s Got Talent -winner. Dumbstruck tells the humorous and heartfelt story of these performers as they pursue their dreams of a career in puppetry, taking their acts across the United States, the Mexican Riviera, the Bahamas and Japan.
