Norwich Puppet Theatre is a venue and theatre company dedicated to championing the special art form of puppetry, providing a magical experience and creative sessions for everyone of all ages!
The theatre is set inside a medieval church and is one of only three building-based puppet theatres in England. They offer family events, original shows, activities and workshops too. There's adult workshops and masterclasses as well!
They have weekly sessions for those interested in theatre and puppetry and they run on Saturdays during the term time. Junior puppeteers get to use a range of materials to design and build their own puppets, characters and stories, whilst building confidence!
There's also the opportunity to bring puppets to life through storytelling and you'll develop scripts, mime and lots of other theatre mediums.
Don't forget they have lots of events and programmes too, so check the website before you visit so you know what's on!
From Tombland, take the right outside the Maids Head Hotel, called Palace Street. Continue on the same road as it curves and becomes Whitefriars. Cross the bridge and you will see a tall brick tower of Jarrold and the large glass Barclays building on the right ahead. Just beyond the Barclays building and before the roundabout you will see the Theatre on the righthand side.
