Arthur’s Dream Boat
January 14th, 2013
Praise for our new show…
“The show takes the time to remind us to reconsider the richness of our own imaginations and the joy of immersing ourselves in innocent fantasy.
Originally created by Polly Dunbar, Arthur and his family are brought to life by a variety of charismatic hand puppets, full body costumes and masks, all with huge personalities. Arthur’s day is punctuated with delicate moments of introversion and interactions invested with surreal twists and clever humour.
His whole world is neatly wrapped up in a technicolour aesthetic dappled with glitter and set to Tom Gray’s neat and quirky soundtrack.’
By Anne-Marie Krolick For The Argus
