Running Wild

Puppetry Co-Designer and Co-Director
UK Tour – 2017

 

“The animals enchant. The puppetry is extraordinary and the reason to see this show. They are life-sized works of art.”

The Times

 

“It’s all about the elephant in this visually stunning production…the life-like attention to detail is so believable, it’s hard to remember Oona is not one being but four actors, skilfully co-ordinating her every move.”

Chichester Observer

 

“The puppetry is sumptuous. Not merely the puppets themselves but the forensic understanding of every nuanced movement which defines the animals they are depicting.”

West Sussex County Times

 

“Superb skill and such artistry it is easy to suspend disbelief and feel the puppet animals which dominate the stage are indeed real.
The amount of puppetry here rivals War Horse – but here we get a giant elephant, tiger, crocodile, orang-utans  fish and butterflies – it’s a sheer delight.”
