Join Puppet Place at The Wardrobe Theatre for the exciting finale of the Bristol 48-Hour Puppet Film Challenge, where a selection of weird and wonderful short puppet films from around the world will be screened. 

In this thrilling event, filmmakers have just 48 hours to create original puppet films from scratch. The results are always unpredictable, imaginative, and full of character! 

Hosted by MC Cat Rock, the evening will feature live screenings, judges’ commentary, and awards, with this year’s panel including Ronnie Le Drew (Zippy), Emma Powell (Air Giants), Mikayla R. Teodoro (West End Puppet Designer), Carolene Yawa Ada (Swallows Wing Puppetry), and Tea Poldervaart (War Horse Puppeteer). 

Presented by Puppet Place, the South West’s hub for puppetry and creative innovation, this finale promises a night of creativity, community, and unforgettable puppet magic.

Sunday 19th October at 6pm-8pm
