Look around you and you will see bugs and insects of all shapes and sizes - from beetles to butterflies and earwigs to moths.   Each one is a work of beauty in itself.... and with nature to inspire you, then you will be able to create a bug puppet of your own - as naturalistic or fantastic as you wish.

In 90 minutes, with a wonderful array of materials (many of them recycled) and Denise Hargrave's expert guidance then you will have a bug of your own to take home with you!

The children's workshops at the Puppet Theatre run for 1½ hours (unless otherwise stated) and during the first part of the session the children all work together under the guidance of the workshop leaders to make the basic 'skeleton' of the puppet. Then there is a short break - where refreshments may be purchased in the Puppet Theatre shop, or you can bring your own along.  After the break it is free creativity time where the puppet's chararacter comes to life - with facial features, hands, costume, accessories etc.  All the materials are included in the price of the workshop.   At the end of the session you will have a puppet to take home with you!
