THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS

PUPPETRY DESIGNER

Royal Opera House, 2012

“Irresistible stoats, rumpled furry puppets who wriggle sinuously out of corners or wait with open-mouthed greed.”
THE INDEPENDENT

“The weasels are scraggy lengths of material fanged with needly teeth, rippling around with a hilarious insinuating ghastliness that is a triumph of manipulated puppetry.”
THE TELEGRAPH

“The stoats are alarmingly disheveled puppets who wriggle and hiss to terrific effect. Best of all, the puppet judge who sentences Toad to prison is genuinely alarming.”
