About Me

Hi there!

Let me start by saying: I’m not a writer, nor am I really a blogger. My background is in model-making, marketing, and working behind the scenes in theatres across England. But one thing I am passionate about is puppetry, performance art, and supporting the creative community.

I gather the information shared here from what I’ve come across myself or been kindly sent. While I aim to share as much as possible, I might not always manage to post everything—but that doesn’t mean it isn’t valuable! I’m always eager to learn about opportunities, events, artists, and creative work to spotlight. If you’d like to contribute or share something, please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

• Reviews & Recommendations: Thoughts on books, films, and performances.

• Community Highlights: Shining a light on outreach and the incredible work creatives are doing.

• Collaborative Space: A place to connect, share ideas, and celebrate the art form.

I’m also working on consolidating the best posts and updates into a monthly newsletter—so stay tuned for that!

This is a voluntary project, but if you’d like to subscribe for free or contribute a small fee to help keep it running, it would mean the world to me.

Follow along on Instagram or reach out if you’d like to collaborate, share news, or just chat about all things puppetry and performance art.

Together, let’s celebrate and support this wonderful art form!
