Brought to you by Broadstairs and St Peter’s Town Council, Summer Theatre is a programme of free entertainment.

The Puppet Petting Farm is latest edition to HandMade Theatre’s Puppet Busking series. These small-scale puppet shows are perfect for community festivals, alternative spaces and walkabout style event offering the chance for audiences to get up close to our delightful puppets and join them in a highly interactive way. The show lasts c. 20 minutes and is suited to a small designated performance space with mats provided for audiences. We also do 5-10 minutes walkabout interaction either side to gather audience and allow informal fun and photos at the end. The petting farm theme is recognisable to all and this show offers the opportunity to meet a range of loveable animal character puppets. Children love to interact with them. Adults enjoy the clever mechanics, the beautiful construction and seeing the fun had by their children. The live music and original songs add dynamics to each character and pulls together an audience. All our puppets are beautifully handcrafted from sustainable materials and are designed to be touched by audiences. The cow is a large scale head. The chicken small, fluffy and great to feed. The piglet is hand held, while the Goat is full size.

SHOWINGS AT 2 & 3.30 PM. WITH CRAFTS IN BETWEEN EACH SHOWING.
