AFTERSCHOOL PUPPET CLUB: SPRING TERM 2025

 
 
 

Ahoy there! The Puppet Theatre Barge and the Floating Classroom have teamed up to offer a fun, creative afterschool puppetry club for children aged 6 - 11 years this Spring Term led by Swallow’s Wings Puppetry.

Over the course of the club, we’ll be learning how to make our own puppets, creating miniature puppet shows and seeing some shows at The Puppet Theatre Barge.

We’ll be focusing on a special style of puppetry for this club - Lambe Lambe - a puppet show for an audience of one.

Together, we’ll create our own “theatres for one” out of a shoe box, along with a short performance.

Using recyclable materials, children will create their own story, make the set and puppets, and learn how to perform a miniature puppet show.

You can find out more about the origins of Lambe Lambe using this link.
