Big Nazo

Big Nazo is a performance group launched in 1986 and headquartered in Providence, Rhode Island. Erminio Pinque, the founder and artistic designer of Big Nazo, envisioned his concept as a puppet show without the stage.

Big Nazo, which derives its name from "big nose" in Italian, made an appearance at the 2010 Winter Olympics.

Big Nazo runs a "creature class" in conjunction with the Rhode Island School of Design Film and Video Department during the winter semester.
