Lempen Puppets
November 18, 2016 @ 6:30 PM
Semi famous puppeteer Frank Stein is busy rehearsing his new show “George the Dragon Slayer” but he’s finding it really difficult with his badly made puppets! He’ll never be famous because his puppets keep falling apart! Taking inspiration from the scientist Dr Frankenstein, and with the help of the audience he creates a new real live puppet that is destined to change this life forever!
Creature George emerges from the workshop – innocent and willing to learn, but Frank is so intent on the planned rehearsal that he neglects to look after his new child.
As one reviewer said: “There is some suspense as the electricity flows across the stage and the audience-created thunderstorm brings Creature George to life. But it’s once the puppeteer disappears off-stage and the Creature really does appear to move, unaided, that the magic really starts. He really takes control of the show, much to the audience’s delight.”
Lempen Puppet Theatre Company have been creating and touring their own unique brand of original stories told with puppets since 1987. Imaginative, lyrical, spellbinding, and surprising, Lempen focus on puppetry, storytelling, light, music and a journey that takes the audience there and back again.
Little Frankenstein will tickle the imagination of everyone from 5 to 105 years old.
