Puppets A Go Go! - A world of visual theatre
and puppetry under canvas.

"DNA is a good example of a contemporary company that moves easily from work aimed at children to work aimed at a general theatre audience to adult cabaret." - Total Theatre Magazine

This weatherproof marquee was an opportunity to showcase innovative performances of puppetry and visual theatre which are designed for outdoors, but are improved by an enclosure.

This project allowed companies to reach out to new audiences by taking work to them where they live, shop and play. In a festival environment, 'Puppets a Go Go!' provided a focus for work robust enough to work on the street, while also allowing the delicacy of working with shadows light materials or poignant subject matter to be appreciated without being compromised by wind, rain and external visual distraction.

Reviews

Rachel Riggs' behind-the-scenes film of one of our 'Puppets A Go Go!' gigs. Fun times at the Green Man festival 2008 with all our crew, familly and friends. Music by Sian de Lier and Paul Sherwood - who won the prize for the best buskers that year!
