The Smoking Puppet Cabaret is a performance space for experiments in puppetry, animation, and visual storytelling. I co-curated and produced the cabaret in collaboration with Tobi Poster-Su and Corina Bona from 2011 to 2013. Performers included Picked Image, Dik Downey, Kid Carpet, Verity Standen, OtherStory, Aya Nakamura, Wattle and Daub, Drew Colby, Headstrung and many many more!
The cabaret continues to be a quarterly event at the Wardrobe Theatre, a bi-annual appearance at the Bristol Festival of Puppetry, and is in its fourth year as a its own venue at Shambala Festival!
★★★★ “A series of eye-popping performers showcased the diversity and ingenuity of modern puppetry… an unforgettable night” – Bristol Theatre Review
