​
An approach to all three basic elements that contribute to making a complete visual universe - Object, Universe and Life. OBJECT - puppet, mask, shadows; UNIVERSE - scenography, light and sound; LIFE - how these elements become animate. An exploratory laboratory, which examines through analysis, practice and experimentations, how a harmonious puppetry performance is created. Through improvisations and research on stage individually and in groups, participants will work on how to develop and realise an idea, all the way from scratch to the final desirable result. See here for Merlin Puppet Theatre's show at the festival, "Noone's Land".
Get involved
Find out about some of the ways you can get involved with Moving Parts Arts and puppetry in the North East of England.
There are so many ways you can get involved in Moving Parts Arts. We regularly offer commissions and development opportunities for artists, as well as open calls for programming periods. We run internships, bursary positions and are always looking for volunteers to help us deliver our ambitious events. If you are North East-based then we also create and commission participatory theatre experience which involve members of the local community. The best way to stay in the loop is to sign up to our newsletter so you are the first to know about what opportunities to get involved we have coming up.
“It was a wonderful experience and it was so exciting watching the whole show come together. I’ve made some new friends and I’m going to learn to play the drums.”
