Last nights view from the workshop window...yes I know it needs a clean!
Going loco down in Honopopo!
To celebrate ten years of making the world a better place and paying the rent through puppetry, we are proud to announce the launch of our new show...(drum roll please!) Captain Jon Voyages Extraordinary Animallarium!
This travelling chamber of natural miracles is now available to book. Offering our trademark mix of astonishing characters, rampant buffoonery and epic puppets, packed into three thirty minute shows per day.
We also revamped this website...just sayin ;)
The Extraordinary Animallarium Premier
We are going hell for leather in preparation for the premier of our new show, "Captain Jon Voyage's Extraordinary Animallarium." Based on the "Boys Own" brand of jungle adventuring pulp fiction that fed our childhood imaginings. The Extraordinary Animallarium smashes together the Victorian attitude to collecting and trophy hunting with contemporary approaches toward conservation and custodianship of the natural world. Featuring all the classic elements of adventure storytelling...explorers, a lost world, children in peril, danger, comedy and an orangutan!
“The world wants to be discovered, maps wait to be written, lost civilisations yearn to be found.”
The show will premier in Margam Park, Port Talbot this coming May Bank Holiday 02/05/2016. We are performing alonside some of the UK's most established street theatre companies, so grab your family and come along!

Having delivered the dodos to their island home we then launched into our busiest Easter season ever, totalling 18 days of performance aross the UK. Currently laundering fur and repairing giant pogo carrots ahead of the build period for our new show....Jon Voyage & The Extraordinary Animallarium!
We will sleep when we are dead!
