Since forming in 2017 Tatwood Puppets have produced a diverse body of work for adult and family audiences, including: 'Apterous the Flightless Dragon' (2017); 'Count Ocular' (2018-present), 'Microbodyssey' (2019), and more recently ‘Cabaret of Curiosities’, ‘Hungry’ (2022-present) and 'Liminal' (2024). They work across a range of mediums, specialising in marionettes, original music, table-top puppetry and parlour magic. Tatwood Puppets also works with walkabout puppetry, offers workshops, and is open to commissions and collaborations within puppetry, music, and visual theatre. They seek to combine various artistic disciplines to create unusual and engaging puppetry experiences, specialising for adult audiences. Their flagship table-top magic cabaret act ‘Count Ocular’ has been performed at Festivals across the UK and France as an indoor and outdoor act, including at major puppetry festivals: Festival Mondial des Théâtres de Marionnettes (World Festival of Puppet Theatres), Skipton Puppet Festival, Nottingham Puppet Festival, Beverley Puppet Festival and Moving Parts: Newcastle Puppetry Festival.
