Puppet Play in a Day

For the first half of this day-long workshop you will work with our expert artists to create your own puppet character, using a range of reclaimed and recycled materials.
After lunch you will learn how to operate your puppet and bring it to life. Together we will use our puppets to write and perform a mini-play.
You will be able to take your puppet home at the end of the day.
