Birdbone Theatre makes puppet shows from scratch and plays them live for the young and the old. We strive to make puppet theatre that might become a house for beauty, for remembering old songs and stories, for wild imaginings and for laughter in hard times. We keep in mind that theatre is a way by which we can know the times we live in, and a way by which the times might recognize us.
We craft our shows with materials at hand, layering techniques, and a vast musicality. We play music, sing and dance to keep it company.
Birdbone Theatre is Aleksandra Bragoszewska, Alison Gowan & Ekaterina.
