The Puppet Theatre Barge has been putting on a programme of unique and magical puppet shows on a converted Thames barge for over thirty years. The audience begin their journey as soon as they step onto the gangplank and climb aboard. They descend below the water line (wellingtons not necessary) and leave the real world behind. Puppets from other parts of the world hang from the walls in retirement. The theatre’s golden curtain is softly lit and banks of seats slope gently to the roof. A ship’s bell is rung, the audience falls silent in anticipation. Music plays, the lights dim, the theatre goes dark and finally the curtain rises to the delight of children and adults alike. The Puppet Theatre Barge moves between two locations - Little Venice and Richmond.

About Little Red Riding Hood

 The much loved story of Red Riding Hood is injected with humour and new twists to the tale in this specially commissioned version by prize winning author Deborah Jones.

Granny is arty but forgetful, Little Red is fearful and feisty, and the Wolf as deep, haunting and mysterious as his forest.

Performed using marionettes and shadow puppets, this production is perfect for adults and children age 5 + and not suitable for babies or pre-school children.
