Each spring, Norwich Puppet Theatre partners with Puppet Animation Scotland to host MANIPULATE Festival - an annual celebration of innovative international visual theatre and animated film. As with most events in recent months, MANIPULATE is going to look a little different this year. We won't be hosting our usual live adult shows and workshops, but Puppet Animation Scotland are hosting a fantastic digital programme of events. Visit their website to see the full programme, and read below for a few highlights.
A Digital Festival Pass gives audiences access to all the events scheduled as part of the Digital Festival, including digital theatre productions, works-in-progress, animated films and panel discussions (workshops sold separately). A pass costs just £20/ £15 concession.
