Puppetry in Performance: using puppets and objects for creativity and storytelling (a Masterclass with Robin Guiver)
Robin’s unique approach to puppeteering is drawn from his background in physical theatre, extensive work with Handspring Puppet Company (War Horse), and his film work with the leading creature puppetry teams in the UK, on films including the latest Star Wars trilogy, , Ghostbusters ‘Frozen Empire’, Jurassic World 2, Wicked, and others.
Working with both solo and on multiple person puppets, using both technique and play, we will look at how and why puppetry is such an exciting and accessible skill, explore different physical languages of puppets for performance, and look at how and where we can apply puppetry as an effective skill in different situations for both theatre and storytelling.
