Explore creativity and performance using puppets and objects with Robin Guiver. Robin’s unique approach to puppeteering is drawn from his background in physical theatre, extensive work with Handspring Puppet Company (the Puppet company behind the National Theatre’s world renowned War Horse), and his film work with the leading creature puppetry teams in the UK, on films including Star Wars VII, VIII and IX, Ghostbusters ‘Frozen Empire’, Jurassic World 2, and others. 

Working both solo and on multiple person puppets, using both technique and play, we will look at how and why is puppetry such an exciting and accessible skill, explore different physical languages of puppets for performance, and look at how and where we can apply puppetry as an effective skill in different situations for both theatre and storytelling.
