The artistry of these puppets and their puppeteers, along with the sound and lightscape, creates a whole world in the intimate Studio theatre. Much more than a parade of stunning puppets, there’s an honest emotional ebb and flow... It’s an invocation, especially to the children, to think about their place in the natural world; about where they fit in with these remarkable animals.
