In November we welcomed shadow puppet specialist Tallulah Swirls to share some of her magic in Shepton!
​
Tallulah Swirls, The Mexican Day of the Dead
Sunday 3rd November, 12pm & 3pm ​
Tallulah Swirls weaved a touching and funny Mexican Day of the Dead tale, using an interactive shadow puppet performance, full of music and light and colour. Followed by a simple shadow puppet making workshop and a chance to make everyones own creations and puppets come to life!
And what a beautiful afternoon it was - as well as learning lots about El Dia de Los Muertos we also talked about celebrating those we've loved. Families made some really beautiful creations - cats, eyes, dragons!
We had a full-house for both shows and everyone learnt lots about the beautiful art of shadow puppetry!
