Biography
“The puppets feel so real that you end up speaking to them as if they are alive! They’re fascinating and the detail that’s gone into making them is amazing!”
Jan Bell, Staff, Eastgate Shopping Centre, Inverness
The Summer Sprites is a strolling/walkabout street theatre show consisting of 2 puppeteer/performers operating 2 bunraku-style puppets (the puppeteers are visible, veiled, and are behind the puppets animating their movements, giving them voices).
The Sprites are beautifully constructed puppets with exquisite attention to detail. Each puppet stands approx. 3ft tall and is costumed in glorious shimmering greens and golds that are illuminated with LED lights integrated into the costumes. This makes them equally suitable for daytime and evening events.
The show is a strolling visual spectacle involving spoken interactions with the audience and public, accompanied by a magical summer meadow soundtrack.
Summer Sprites are perfect for: Festivals, summer events, garden parties, shopping centre entertainment, fairy-tale themed events, fairy-themed events, children’s events, summer fetes, private functions
