Not for the fainthearted, the exhibition will include animatronic creatures, original designs, refined designs, and a plethora of other puppet related delights. The exhibition will include works from the National Theatre’s exhibition Staging War Horse, which will be displayed alongside Australia’s largest puppetry item collection, Art Centre Melbourne’s Performing Arts Collection.
Character showstoppers Scarlett O’Hara from Gone with the Wind, and Viva La Vida puppet Frida Kahlo will be there, including the macabre masks of Dante… Through The Insivible. You might want to avoid the latter though, Dante’s works were terrifying enough without puppetry adaption.
