What your money will help us do!
- TRAINING – FirstHand is a year-long training program that provides emerging professional mentoring and training to work alongside skilled artists in creating new puppetry shows.
- EXCELLENCE – Help us to employ WA’s most talented artists to generate new work and cross new boundaries in puppet theatre so that people everywhere can experience the very best puppetry.
- NEW WORK – Make new Australian work. Creating new shows cost a lot of money and is now becoming a great challenge for the company in tough economic times. You will help us continue to create new puppetry shows and workshops that will reach audiences in schools, the city and country.
