Shadow Puppetry Workshop: Playing with Light

Watch as your drawings leap to life, off the page and onto the stage!

Summer@ The Art House Presents
Shadow Puppetry Workshop: Playing with Light
By Little Wing Puppets

Come along and explore the world of shadow puppetry with experienced puppeteer, Jenny Ellis. This hands-on workshop will give children a range of skills to make their own shows and as well as a puppet they can take home.

Participants will imagine and design their own unique puppet characters, then they’re guided through the process of making their puppets and bringing them to life.

Children will work together in small groups to create their own shows. With a few tricks of the trade, they will finish with a performance of their own stories on a real shadow puppet stage. 

Workshop will be run on The Art House Theatre main stage and is recommended for children aged 4-12. Children under 6 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian during the workshop.

Limited to 20 participants per workshop
