Question: What type of shows are Punch and Judy and The Beggar's Opera?
Context: The Beggar's Opera is a ballad opera in three acts written in 1728 by John Gay with music arranged by Johann Christoph Pepusch.  It is one of the watershed plays in Augustan drama and is the only example of the once thriving genre of satirical ballad opera to remain popular today.  Ballad operas were satiric musical plays that used some of the conventions of opera, but without recitative.  The lyrics of the airs in the piece are set to popular broadsheet ballads, opera arias, church hymns and folk tunes of the time. Punch and Judy is a traditional, popular, and usually violent puppet show featuring Pulcinella (Mr. Punch) and his wife Judy.  The performance consists of a sequence of short scenes, each depicting an interaction between two characters, most typically Mr. Punch and one other character who usually falls victim to Judy's club.  It is often associated with traditional British seaside culture.  The various episodes of Punch and Judy are performed in the spirit of outrageous comedy—often provoking shocked laughter—and are dominated by the clowning of Mr. Punch. The Judy's were a Pearland, Texas-based punk and new wave band from the late 1970s and early 1980s.  The song for which they are most likely best-remembered, "Guyana Punch", recounted the infamous Jonestown massacre.  Several of their songs were topical: "Dogs" refers to the Son of Sam murderer; "Radiation Squirm" refers to the Three Mile Island accident; "How's Gary" refers to the execution of convicted killer Gary Gilmore; and "Vacation in Tehran" refers to the Iranian hostage crisis, among others.  On December 1, 2007, The Judy's announced the opening of their own label and website, Wasted Talent Records.  On this website, the albums "Moo" and "Washarama" were released on CD and vinyl, having been previously available only on vinyl and cassette tape. (The) Judybats were an alternative rock band from Knoxville, Tennessee, active primarily in the late 1980s and early 1990s.  First formed in 1987 after vocalist Jeff Heiskell, who with Ed Winters (guitar) had been playing acoustically in Knoxville as a duo, met Tim Stutz (bass) at a local bar called Hawkeyes Corner.  Stutz, Johnny Sughrue (guitarist) and Terry Casper (drums) had known each other since high school and had been playing music together as a trio.  Peggy Hambright, who was Stutz and Sughrue’s roommate, added keyboards, violin and vocals.  The JudyBats played locally to large audiences before signing to Sire Records in 1990.  The band took their name from a song written by a friend of theirs, which contained the line "punch me with a judybat" in a punning allusion to Punch and Judy shows. A swazzle (swozzle, schwazzle or swatchel) is a device made of two strips of metal bound around a cotton tape reed.  The device is used to produce the distinctive harsh, rasping voice of Punch in a Punch and Judy show, and is held in the mouth by the "professor" (performer). John Stoddart is an Australian opera stage designer.  Born in Sydney, he began as an architect.  On his first British commission, he designed the stage for Anthony Besch's production of "Così fan tutte" in 1967 at the Scottish Opera, where he continued to work.  In 2000 he collaborated with John Cox to stage "Capriccio" at the Sydney Opera House during the 2000 Summer Olympics.  Aside from "Capriccio", with Opera Australia he has designed the sets for "The Magic Flute", "Ariadne auf Naxos", "Patience", "The Beggar’s Opera", "Die Fledermaus", "Les Huguenots", "Don Carlos", "A Streetcar Named Desire", "Of Mice and Men", and "Die tote Stadt". A punch perm (パンチパーマ , panchi pāma ) is a type of tightly permed male hairstyle in Japan.  From the 1970s until the mid-1990s, it was popular among yakuza, chinpira (low-level criminals), bōsōzoku (motorcycle gang members), truck drivers, construction workers, and enka singers.  The punch perm began to fall out of usage as a result of its general association with the yakuza, as well as normal fashion trends.  The style is similar to the Jheri curl, which was popular in the United States during roughly the same time frame, but the curls in a punch perm are much tighter. Sarasota Jungle Gardens has been a tourist attraction in Sarasota, Florida in the United States since 1936.  It offers ten acres, or four hectares, of botanical plantings along with bird and animal shows.  Special shows are held each December for the holiday season, including a classic "Punch and Judy" show, performed by "Professor DeWitt"  that has become an annual tradition during the past sixteen years.  Jungle Gardens is an old-fashioned, family-oriented tourist attraction that continues to appeal to the public.  It is open to the public for a per-use ticket fee, as well as offering yearly membership passes for those wishing to visit frequently.  Some children who visit regularly consider it their 'neighborhood park'.  Special events for children are held during the summer.  On a limited basis, the site is also available for special events that are compatible with the residential neighborhood that has grown up around it during its seven decades of existence. Punch and Judy is an opera with music by Harrison Birtwistle and a libretto by Stephen Pruslin, based on the puppet figures of the same names.  Birtwistle wrote the score from 1966 to 1967.  The opera was first performed at the Aldeburgh Festival, which had commissioned the work, on 8 June 1968, with David Atherton conducting the English Opera Group.  The premiere cast included John Cameron as Mr Punch. Martin Powell, ("fl".  1709–1720; d. 1729) was an Irish master puppeteer and puppet show impresario, who put on a repertoire of satirical and parodical marionette shows that invariably featured the Punch character.  He drew audiences first at provincial towns such as Bath, then moving his venue to London.  His theatre (dubbed "Punch's Opera" or "Punch's Theatre") established itself in early 1710 at its first location, at the north end of St. Martin's Street intersected by Litchfield St., not quite in Covent Garden.  But by 1711 he relocated the theatre to the galleries of Covent Garden, at Little Piazza, opposite St. Paul's Church.
