'With great artistry they convey extraordinary stories which resonate in our conscious and subconscious' Dresdner Anzeiger

Anarchic and outrageous in the best traditions of puppet theatre, Vestibular Folds involves the story of a tragic opera written by 19c marionettist, alchemist and dentist Ichabod Appleseed and its recording in a version designed to sound the same whether played forwards or in reverse. Founded in 2004 by Patrick Sims and Mafalda Camera and based in Spain, this new multi-national troupe use extraordinary puppets made from recycled materials - wood, metal, skin, bones, and glass. Radical, mysterious, mind-blowing images and the spirit of travelling showmen from a bygone age. UK Premiere
