Collaborations
The Blue Bird
This showcasing collaboration combines music, story-telling and puppetry,
by bringing together the sounds of Saffron Beagley's Silhouette Ensemble
and the shadow puppetry of Armchair Puppet Theatre, to create an enthralling
mystical performance of the enchanting story, The
Blue Bird, by
Maurice Maeterlinck. This spectacular performance is at 8.00pm on Wednesday
31st May at The Wardrobe, in Leeds.
World Record
Since the millenium, Ken and Jill have collaborated extensively with
Tony Gee, first setting a new World Record
for the Biggest Puppet Show on Earth with the help of three Somerford Schools in Dorset. This collaboration
then broke the record at the Torquay Riviera Centre with young puppeteers
from Cockington Primary School.
Creation Myths
Ken regularly collaborates with Tony Gee's Far
and Wide puppet company
and Martin Corbin in many schools, reworking a range of traditional Creation
Myths from around the world.
A Moveable Feast
As Tony's ideas developed, Ken and Martin continued to assist in a series
of nine Moveable Feasts for artist workshoppers, which has since evolved
through an in-house training course and a series of workshops into The
Moveable Feast Workshop Company.
