The Tortoise and the Hare

For In a Nutshell Theatre

In 2023 I was commissioned to make 2 puppets for In a Nutshell Theatre company for a production of The Tortoise and The Hare for schools.

Finished Hare Puppet

​These were some of my first commissioned puppets. The Hare was created using plywood for the legs and arms. I used EVA to pattern the head and body. This was also my first time using Hessian to fabric over the puppet. The Tortoise was made completely from EVA foam.
