🎬 Lights, camera… GORE! 🧟‍♀️🩸

Last term, our Film and Advanced Film and Costuming and Make Up participants got to dive into the wonderfully gruesome world of special effects makeup with the amazing Isabel Peppard!

From creating creepy zombie fingers to realistic boils and wounds, our filmmakers got hands-on experience bringing some seriously spooky characters to life.

There were plenty of laughs, a few “ewwws!” and lots of creativity along the way.

A huge thank you to Isabel Peppard for sharing your skills and helping our participants take their filmmaking to the next (and slightly more terrifying!) level.

Your DNA Puppetry present TWO shows in 2026 to satisfy our fans!

WONDERLOVE - When 12 sister princesses planned a picnic by the seaside, they had dreams of an epic fest. But when the day came to unpack their picnic baskets, they realized they had forgotten something more important than the mayonnaise….

Our mid-winter cabaret performed to a packed house warmed by mulled wine and charcuterie boards - like the puppets themselves! The production involved participants learning how to build and operate articulated rod, stick, hand and wearable puppets to tell a magical story of their own imagining.

Missed it? Fear not! Come see show number 2 - CHIAROSCURO - Dec 3rd on the International Day of Disability!

Wonderlove!

When 12 sister princesses plan a picnic by the seaside, they have dreams of an epic fest. But when the day comes to unpack their picnic baskets, they realize they have forgotten something more important than the mayonnaise….

Come join the princesses and other demigods in this year’s mid-winter Puppetry cabaret! Let us warm your cockles with mulled wine (or tea or coffee or anything else you prefer from our fully licensed bar) to enjoy at your table laid with complimentary cheese board!

After we have entertained you, Puppetry ’26 invite you to continue supping and sipping over a post-show Q+A, answering any questions you may wonder about the story or process behind the work that we love.
