OUR PUPPETRY WORKSHOPS

Animate has a reputation for delivering puppetry workshops of the highest quality. We offer two workshop options: Stand Alone Puppetry Workshops or our Workshop Series. ​​

“Thanks so much, it was such a great workshop. So informative and fun at the same time! The students are still buzzing about it. You were so engaging and supportive of the students. We had lots of shouts of ‘best workshop I have ever done’. It was inspiring and so thought provoking. Especially the time you took to give advice and support with regards to the Q&A too”​ Natalie Midworth, Head of Drama, Lytchett Minster Sixth Form (more reviews can be found here!)​​

Our Stand Alone Puppetry Workshop are an introduction to puppetry and focus on upskilling for performing arts students at KS4 level and above.

In these supportive and engaging sessions, we teach the fundamentals of puppetry.  Students are guided through a range of solo and group activities before creating short scenes to share with the rest of the group.

Animate's Workshop Series is a set of workshops that work with specific groups of people to use puppetry for social good.

The first project in our 'Workshop Series' was the 'Puppetry & Wellbeing Project'. 


Between May and October 2026, Animate toured a brand new workshop program specifically created for KS2 children focused on Wellbeing - offering a hands-on introduction to puppetry as a tool for expression & connection. This project was supported using public funding by Arts Council England. To discover more about this project, click here.
