How does a little stage feel this big?

A tiny stage can open a surprisingly big world. Puppet theatre gives families a shared story to watch, listen to and talk about afterwards.

What to expect

A voice. A movement. A whole character.

Puppet theatre combines a crafted character with a performer's movement, timing and sound. A small change of direction can draw attention; music can set the scene; an invitation to sing can bring the audience into the story. Some performances use dialogue, others communicate through movement and music. Match the show's recommended age and subject to the child rather than assuming every puppet performance is for young children.

01

Notice the character

Look for how a puppet turns, pauses or reacts. A small movement can carry the story.

02

Choose the right show

Read the age recommendation and format. Sing-along stories and student-written productions offer different kinds of family outings.
