Tysoe Marionette Group

The group has started work on its next production, being:

“ALI BABA

THE PUPPET PANTO”

 This is a humorous and ambitious musical version of the original Arabic story drawn from the “1001 Tales of the Arabian Nights”

Dialogue recording for the four ruthless robbers (amongst others) is completed and singing recordings in progress.  Meanwhile out in the Barn Theatre, marionette manipulation rehearsals have just started.

Great fun is being had by all involved, but, in the new year we will need a few more volunteers to assist us with scenery changing and technical support.

Performances are scheduled for:  April 2008  on:

Sat 12th (matinee & evening) and Sun 13th (matinee);

Fri 25th (evening) and Sat 26th (matinee & evening). 

The Group has been awarded the British Puppet and Model Theatre Guild’s ‘President’s Plate’ for services to Puppetry 2007/2008 and has recently hosted the Guild’s Annual Summer Garden Party and staged a special evening for the Midlands Puppet Forum. “A funny thing happened on the way to the Forum!”
