From rod puppets to hand puppets join us in a fun and interactive workshop where students will learn how to make, move and vocalise puppets. Our actor/facilitators will help the children make their own paper puppets and create different characters for them. Our young puppeteers will also explore different types of puppets and the various ways of bringing them to life!

This is a fun and creative workshop suitable for all ages.

Packages available: Silver, Gold.

All of our workshops can be tailored to suit the needs of your school and are flexible in their length. This means you can have up to SEVEN 45 minute workshops in a day or a whole day of interactive and in depth workshop with one class, ending in a short performance. Unlike most companies this does not change the price quoted.
