Puppet Walkabout
Sarah, one of Britain’s few remaining marionette makers and operators, will be touring the Showground performing her “Puppet Walkabout” throughout the show.
Puppet Walkabout…
I am a puppet maker and puppeteer with a specialism in marionette making (string puppets).
To date, I have built puppets to commission for small-scale theatre, street theatre, film, participatory projects and private collections. In 2023 marionette making was added to the Heritage Crafts Association’s Red List of Endangered Crafts. I am therefore proud to be one of the few remaining marionette makers and operators based in the UK.
At Lustleigh Show I will be performing a “Puppet Walkabout” in the Showgrounds at various times throughout the day.
