Puppets and Puppet Theatre by David Currell

Puppets & Puppet Theatre has been essential reading for everyone interested in making and performing puppets for over 25 years. Now in a fully revised and updated new edition, it concentrates on designing, making and performing with the main types of puppets, and is extensively illustrated in full colour throughout. ‘This book could perhaps be subtitled “The A to Z of Puppetry”, since there is hardly a puppetry subject that is not covered ... hard to fault.’ - The Puppet Master
David Currell is widely recognized as a leading authority on puppet theatre. He was co-founder of the National Puppet Centre and its chairperson for nearly twenty years. One of the most widely published authors on the subject over a period of forty years, this is his first book to focus exclusively on shadow play, which is one of his specialist interests. David has written Puppets and Puppet Theatre and Making & Manipulating Marionettes for Crowood. Resident - London SW
