About this Event
Tiny Giants is a playful, hands-on puppetry workshop for children aged 5–11 that brings everyday, overlooked materials to life through imagination, making and storytelling.
Children are guided step by step through creating their own puppet using found materials such as newspaper, tin foil, scraps of plastic and even old (clean!) socks. As they build, they’ll develop a character inspired by the material they’ve chosen, exploring the journeys these objects may have been on before reaching them.
Once the puppets are complete, everyone will work together to bring them to life through drama games and storytelling. The group then devises a short performance where their characters set off on an adventure through an unfamiliar landscape.
Each child leaves with their own handmade puppet and plenty of new ideas to take home.
Please, book one free ticket per child.
Notice that children under the age of 8 must be accompained by an adult during the whole session (accompaining adults don't need to book a ticket).
