People behind the puppets
Over the past 60 years, a huge range of designers have brought their unique puppet designs to life on the Little Angel Theatre stage.
In this new online series, Little Angel’s very own Little Angel puppet will meet and interview several different designers to find out more about their experiences of puppetry design and why they love working in the field.
Bertie
Bertie… is our brand new first-ever digital series!
Bertie is an environmental entertainment and education series or children aged 3 to 8 on LAT’s YouTube Channel. Children will learn about different environmental issues and consider how they can take their own steps to help combat climate change.
All puppets and set have been designed and made using found and recycled materials – LAT is committed to environmental sustainability in our actions as well as in our content.

Family Workshops – The King of Nothing
Want to know the best way to keep in style with Little Angel Theatre? With your own fashionable puppet of course!
Join us at our studios on Sebbon Street, where we’ll be making and decorating our own King of Nothing Puppet. Inspired by King Reginald, we’ll teach you how to bring your own puppet to life so you’ll be singing and dancing in your own parade.

Object Theatre Masterclass
This four session course will look at bringing objects to life, both as characters and as tools for storytelling. The objects that surround us are full of meaning and movement. They are symbols of human ideas, identities and emotions. Through practical work, we will look at techniques for unlocking this potential. During the course, you will work as an individual and collaboratively in small groups to explore making performance with objects.
For Schools
We have a page specifically for schools. You can find all of the information you will need on this page.
