LABC Presents: Sid Krofft: 55 Years of Weird

CELEBRATE ALL THINGS KROFFT, INCLUDING PUFNSTUF’S ANNIVERSARY! On September 6, 1969, the world was introduced to the series H.R. PufnStuf and with it, the zany genius of brothers Sid and Marty Krofft! In the decades that followed, Sid & Marty continued to innovate TV, films, live shows and even theme parks with their signature style of puppetry, visuals and storytelling.

Join us on September 4th to witness Sid Krofft's honorary initiation into The LA Breakfast Club! We’ll then join Sid on a rollicking discussion about the beloved projects that define his groundbreaking career.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER: Sid Krofft is the co-creator of a slew of 1970s children's programming regarded as both beloved childhood memories and the height of psychedelic camp, Sid Krofft and his brother Marty co-produced such eye-popping, live-action shows as H.R. Pufnstuf (NBC, 1969-1971), Sigmund and the Sea Monsters (NBC, 1973-75) and Land of the Lost (NBC, 1974-77). 

By the mid-1970s, the Kroffts' success with children led to primetime, where they brought their fanciful sensibilities to Donny and Marie (ABC, 1976-79). In subsequent decades, the Kroffts would repackage their library for new audiences, while holding onto their core audience of nostalgic Gen Xers who still fondly remembered their candy-colored fantasy worlds as a weekly trip to a happier, if occasionally stranger, place.
