Don Quixote

PUPPETRY DESIGNER & DIRECTOR

Royal Shakespeare Company, 2016
West End, 2018

“Ingenious puppets.”
EVENING STANDARD

“The puppetry (take a bow Toby Olié) is superb and the lion gives a certain Lion King down the road a run for its money.”
THE TIMES

“The gorgeous inventiveness of Toby Olié’s puppetry, ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous.“
WHATSONSTAGE

“Toby Olié’s work is certainly the added spice that works best, with beautifully-made lions, hilarious falcons and murdered sheep all featuring, wittily and winningly manipulated by the cast.”
A YOUNGER THEATRE

“Enlivened by an excellent two-man lion, a hawk, innumerable puppet cats and some horsing around by the horses.”
