The Cube

The Cube (1969)

An unnamed character is trapped in a cubical white room where others can enter and leave, but which he himself apparently cannot leave. A stool is brought in covered in strawberry jam, the furniture changes throughout the play. The main character is subjected to an increasingly puzzling and frustrating series of encounters, as a variety of people come through various hidden doors. But, as many remind him, he can only leave through his own door, so he must find it.

The Cube is an hourlong teleplay that first aired on the weekly anthology series NBC Experiment in Television in 1969. Produced and directed by puppeteer and filmmaker Jim Henson, it was one of several experiments with the live-action genre he conducted before focusing primarily on the Muppets and other puppet works. Screenplay coauthor Jerry Juhl subsequently served as the Muppets head writer for nearly four decades.
