BIG AND SMALL, I MAKE 'EM ALL!
I love working with puppets of all sizes, and have created work for parades, walkabouts, theatre and cabaret. I enjoy making and performing with all styles of puppet, using a variety of techniques and materials, but have particular experience in backpack puppets and larger characters.
Puppetry is a collaborative art form, and I love the way that it brings people together. It is a special kind of alchemy. As well as my work as a maker, I enjoy directing and performing with my creations, bringing my puppets to life.
