Your Choice of Show
​
-
A 5***** star theatre experience suitable for children and adults in your venue! We provide all sound and light equipment as well as fully insured and DBS checked cast and technical crew. All you need to provide is a clean empty space with electric.
-
​
-
Blackout is preferable and mats and seats are useful! We will confirm all timings and measurements with you well in advance of the show day!
Puppet making workshops
​
Normally for one class or up to 35 children for about an hour. Children are taught to make puppets from recycled materials and this can be linked to the curriculum if required!
All you need to do is ask the children to bring clean recycling materials from home to be used for making puppets or collect some from around the school!
Technical and set tour
​
Usually for children who have taken part in the workshops, we will give an introductory talk and tour about the technical aspects of theatre such as lighting, sound and design. They will be shown around the set and we will explain how we made the show and answer any questions the children or teachers have.
​
Post show ‘meet the puppets’ for the audience and children
​
After the show we are happy for the audience to meet the cast and the puppets and to take some selfies if they would like to!
