SHOW DAY for new piece of puppet theatre 'Arthur the Bear King'

It was a really wonderful moment to see everything in place on the Abergavenny Borough’s beautiful stage.

We took puppets from the show to Llanfoist School, and asked for further feedback from the pupils following their theatre visit yesterday.

The open day at the community centre included showing of bear puppet prototypes and short theatre scenes for people with additional needs.

Welsh legends and Arthurian adventures, and playing with adorable baby bear puppets.

Birds in flight, magic and wizardry, woodland animals playing ball, and we’re only half way through the week...

PuppetSoup will be holding an open day for puppetry and theatre professionals, and the community at Abergavenny Community Centre
