Hello !
"Marc Parrett's puppets are bewitching!"
The Guardian
We are Nicole and Marc of the Grandly Strange Puppet Theatre, based in Leeds. We love making and performing puppet theatre shows to audiences of all ages, all over the UK... and beyond!
Our shows are beautifully crafted and playful. We often adapt well known stories, giving them a contemporary twist... or we write stories of our own, based on our life experiences!
​
To discover who we are, just click on 'about us' in the top bar... or if you would like to explore our Grandly Strange World just scroll downwards.
Thanks for visiting and hope to see you soon!
