Life-Like Puppets Come Alive At Burdekin Theatre

Be taken to another world at Burdekin Theatre with a puppet show like you have never seen before.

This unique performance offers audience interactions with the life-like puppets of real-life animals, you’ll feel like you have transported into a habitat, immersed into their secret world.

Explore alongside these exotic and rare creatures for a profound experience that embraces the natural world and the creatures that co-inhabit this place we call earth.

Brought to you by ARC Erth, this innovative and enchanting performance presents audiences with intimate magical encounters that feel real enough you could reach out and touch.

The show also raises the important question about our environment and fragile wildlife.

The work raises awareness for the protection of endangered species and the idea of extinction whilst at the same time offering a provocation of hope.

Erth are known as revolutionising physical and visual theatre with their innovating puppets.

In the past they have created creatures from throughout history, most notably their incredible dinosaur puppetry shows which were highly-acclaimed right across the country.

Erth are now turning their focus on the future and raising awareness about unique and endangered species, with an enchanting tale that is rich in colour and life.

For over 30 years Erth’s puppetry-based theatrical productions and innovative community projects have challenged and inspired audiences around the world.
