Invisible Thread: Plucked

17 Jan 2012 - 22 Jan 2012

Escape normality and suspend disbelief as you enter the magical world of surreal adult puppetry.

Drawing on images and themes from life and myth and using live video-feed painting, object theatre, puppetry and animation, Plucked follows a journey from beauty to beast and beyond, exploring the frailties and complexities of being human.

Invisible Thread is a new company established by Liz Walker, co-founder and joint artistic director of Faulty Optic. Inhabiting the same world of cronky mechanical sets and strange animated figures as its famous predecessor which toured the world for twenty years, Plucked is a fairy tale for adults, scary and haunting, funny and tragic.

“For 20 years she (Liz Walker) has explored the art form’s nightmare limits, with surreal dramas about puppets in crisis that have been likened to the works of David Lynch and Samuel Becket.” Independent on Sunday
