Kingston's Traveling Airway Puppet Show.jpg

Much like vagic that takes place in delivery rooms, puppet shows are the most popular form of entertainment provided by anesthesiologists.


History


Puppet shows are a newer form of medical entertainment, with much less history than vagic, which was created several decades earlier. The first puppet show was put on by anesthesiologist Dr. Thomas Kingston on October 12, 2016.[1] Bored by Sudoku[2] and having surfed the entire internet[3], Kingston decided to pioneer the effort of entertaining his surgical colleagues while maintaining his anonymity behind the drape.[4] Kingston's puppet show was a resounding success, even earning a front page spot on both the New England Journal of Medicine and the New York Times. Not only has Kingston taken his puppet show on the road in the critically acclaimed Traveling Airway Puppet Show, it has actually become so popular than anesthesiologists are petitioning for a 1-year fellowship dedicated solely to the art of puppet shows.
