A la Puppet Carte

A la Puppet Carte is a collection of short puppet shows build on the back of electric tricycles.

A la Puppet Carte is a collection of short puppet shows built on electric cargo bikes which can play continuously to small crowds. With their own built-in sound system and battery-operated lights, these shows can perform day or night in almost any space. Each mobile stage is a show full of surprises, fun and a heart-warming story of friendship and a sense of home.

Thingumajig Theatre creates and performs innovative puppet plays and interactive giant puppet street acts. Based in West Yorkshire, their puppets have played throughout the UK and 14 other countries and have been seen on television and a major Disney film.

Current acts include illuminated giant caribou, a mechanical hippo, a giant chicken, dodo birds and “Kit and Caboodle”, a street play telling stories of migration built around a pack mule puppet.

A la Puppet Carte is supported by Without Walls and commissioned by Timber Festival and Just So Festival.

The R&D for A la Puppet Carte was supported by Blueprint: Without Walls R&D Investment Fund.
