​

Skeleton Dad is a live-action dark comedy puppet theater series about navigating family relationships and acknowledging personal differences.

​

The show follows five brothers learning to live with the loss of their father. Living together in their childhood home, each of them carries a burden they seldom discuss or consider. After a late-night celebration of Dia de los Muertos, a knock on the door announces the arrival of someone who seems to know quite a bit about their lives.

​

The brothers believe it at first to be a prank, but soon discover the truth: they are being haunted by a long-dead skeleton, come back to life! Now the five brothers must reopen some old wounds, examine issues they thought they had left behind, and learn to accept one another– all over again.
