about 

we appropriate random objects, abandoned puppets and discarded materials and dump them on a stage. Eventually they find a way to tell stories about the perpetual messiness of existence, ambition and survival. Sometimes they just get in the way. 

PIXIEMATOSIS was the first thing we made; a universally recognisable tale of greed and it's consequences played out in a 'magical' midnight garden, and told with minimal language. The show toured the UK in 2023 and was featured at Moving Parts Puppetry Festival in Newcastle

 

The Ballad of the Underwater Daughter is either a highly personal story about Marc’s experiences of being a Dad, or an exploration of the states of frustration and anxiety that can strangle our own life journeys. This show is an ongoing Arts Council funded project which seeks to blur the boundaries between theatrical performance and art gallery exhibition. The Ballad of the Underwater Daughter will be touring the UK from spring 2025
