 The Recipe Book
Puppet Tree can cook up the perfect activity to suit your programme and needs. We have a range of adaptable tried and tested activities for all ages; and we are always willing to provide you with a bespoke activity based on your ideas and interests.
 Storytelling- Ian's mixture of physical and verbal inventiveness is a treat for all audiences. Are you exploring traditional stories? Different cultures from India to Africa, Travellers to Aborigines? Ancient civilisations from Egypt to Rome, Vikings and Tudors? Whatever your theme, Ian will develop a varied and engaging programme that leaves the audience begging for more.
 Workshops- Put the Fizz in your Fun Day, the 'Cor!' in your classroom and some 'Yippee!' into your youth group with a Puppet Tree workshop. Choose from scrap music making, storytelling, folk dance, Cooperative Games, puppet making, mask making, crazy hats & drama improvisation. Looking for ideas to freshen up your group programme? Ian specialises in staff & volunteer workshops.
 The Word Cook: rustling up a tasty menu of Rhyming Cakes, Poetry Pizza plus a mouthwatering selection from the Tales Trolley. The Word Cook serves anything from a light sentence to a meataphor, catering for every taste, from Verbivores to the Adjectivorous. His recipe book will tickle the tastebuds of all ages from Nursery to Year 11 and beyond; anywhere that language needs livening up!
 Community Celebrations: From planning to delivery let Puppet Tree help you create a special event that will celebrate your local community, give people a sense of pride in their own skills and ideas and a wonderful shared memory of a happy and successful activity. Community Centres, churches, youth groups & schools are all past clients - please get in touch to find out how Ian can help you.
 Puppets & Masks: Using scrap and recycled materials Ian can help you bring any theme to life, from Ancient Egypt to traditional tales, myths and legends to the Here And Now! Ian specialises in working with 'hard to reach' groups in school and community settings, using the power of creativity and imagination to break down barriers to learning and communication.
 Street Theatre: dynamic and unusual, Puppet Tree's street theatre grabs the attention and massages the funny bone. A one-man mummers play? Christmas shadow puppets? The History of Coffee? No problem! Characters and situations to suit all tastes and events.
 Folk arts: are you discovering the wonderful world of traditional British music, song and dance? Music Ally and Ian A'Spin can bring it to life for any group from 20 to 200. Playing multiple folk instruments, bringing tunes, stories and dances to life, they use their wealth of experience as barn dance leaders and performers to give children and adults an educational and enthralling (not forgetting exhausting) experience.
