In September 2024 we were tasked with creating a life size Bengal tiger puppet to be used for public engagement at Chagford Film Festival, accompanying the film screening of the National Theatre's Production of ‘The Life of Pi’.

Under the guidance of friend, mentor and Creature Guru William Todd – Jones ‘Todd’ we were able to bring this project to life in only 2 weeks! 

Todd helped 'tigger' us along on this project and was a wonderful mentor, helping us to bring the wild to the town of Chagford. 

Todd is currently doing amazing things, reconnecting people to nature. please head to www.wild-connect.com to read more on the fantastic work!

Our tiger would not have been possible without the amazing support and guidance of many people: Maya - our tiger puppeteer, Paul - tiger engineer and wizard, Brendan - our impromptu tiger wrangler, carol - our tiger snapper, Todd - Tiger tamer and 'tiggerer' and many others. our heartfelt gratitiude and thanks to these wonderful people.
