Marionettes & Memories

We warmly invite seniors in our community to join us for Marionettes and Memories – a relaxed, hands-on puppetry session over a cuppa and good company.

Led by our Associate Director Michael Barlow, the experience includes a playful introduction to marionettes using pieces from Spare Parts Puppet Theatre’s treasured collection. You’ll have the chance to try the puppets yourself and explore how they move, express, and connect.

The session also includes a memory-sharing activity inspired by curious objects selected by Spare Parts, with participants working together with Michael to bring to life a few favourite stories using marionettes.

Tea, coffee, and biscuits provided.
