Cat Town.
During October 2019, I worked with Puppet Soup to devise a new show for Hate Crime Awareness Week, commissioned by Gwent Police and Monmouthshire County Council.
​
We devised the show, built and designed puppets, set, the soundscape, and the lighting. From there we toured it to schools and venues across Wales, alongside a tie-in puppet making workshop.
​
Cat Town aims to get children aged 7-11 to think about prejudice, and how society should combat these issues through the metaphor of Cats and Dogs.
​
In November 2021 we revamped the show, creating an improved set, and rebuilding the puppets, ready for additional tours in 2022 and beyond!
I also created a series of videos called "Cat Town News". These videos feature a puppet I built for a blue screen shoot, who narratives serval news stories which appear during the show.
