THIS WEEKEND at Puppet Place - the Scratch Cabaret is back:
Friday night is SOLD OUT... but there are still some tix for SATURDAY matinee and evening shows

A chance to catch Green Ginger in action - we're wheeling out an old friend - Lionel the Vinyl AKA The Groovegrocer. Known to many as the supplier of discs to Mutant FM - the submarine-based pirate radio station at the heart of the company's 2005 show RUST - Lionel has not been seen in the wild for over 10 years, and there's a chance that he may never make another appearance...

Saw this show last night, and I urge able to get to Bristol to see it too. It's brave, poetic, autobiographical, and utterly moving. The show was created in response to the NSPCC reporting that in the UK alone, there are an estimated 11 million survivors of Child Sexual Abuse.
Think about that number for a moment.
That's one in six people.

Viv Gordon Company is starting a grassroots revolution, and giving an invisible community a voice, and through its use of pop-up spaces - like the venue for this show - spaces to gather.
