Background to workshop

Background: Based upon bunraku Japanese form of puppetry, the workshop begins with an introduction to puppet theatre and a process of getting to knowing each other. The workshop then looks at story creation and examine the seven basic plotlines, and each group develops one plotline to tell a story. With the help of Helen, you then create the puppet characters and the world of puppets using newspaper and tissue paper, and tell your story. The stories are presented to a live audience.

Helen Sandercoe (Stories That Matter) has been a Drama/Theatre Teacher much of her life including a passion for puppetry including newspaper & shadow puppetry.  She has shared her extensive drama and performing practice over many years.

Presented by The Coolroom as part of Castlemaine Fringe Festival 2025
