Theatre of Dolls proudly presents Dolls Of Love!!
Saturday 7th June, 2014

We are proud to present our latest production. Dolls Of Love is the culminating piece in our series of performances. It is a love story within the layers of a Russian Doll, a visual poem where puppets are used as storytellers in the sculptural landscape of the performers' costumes. This piece weaves together ceremony and ritual, where visual imagery will be translated into a song and the narrative is embroidered into a costume.

We are doing two premiere dates in two different venues. St Pancras Old Church on Sunday 29 June at 8pm and Somerset House on Friday 25 July at 7pm.

You can get tickets for these two events at ticketweb.co.uk

Summer News
Wednesday 24th July, 2013

We just got back from our little one week tour in South of France which was wondrous, didn't want it to end. We swam in the warmest Atlantic sea and the most turqoise river, learned a little bit of surfing (bruised but happy), drunk champangne (which was cheap but delicious as we were in the champagne region!!) and then went off with the French circus. Below is the poster of La Robe Sacree that we performed here.

This weekend we are off to The Secret Garden Party where we will be performing at the Black Cat Bar at 9.10pm. Hope to see you there!

Then, August 8th - 11th we will be at Wilderness Festival.

And 13th - 15th of September we are going back to the magical woods of Festival 6.

In the meanwhile we are busy busy busy bees and working our wings off on Dolls Of Love, here is the growdfunding campaign if you would like to become part of it, you can do it here www.indiegogo.com/projects/dolls-of-love

Our updates seem to be seasonal. So be it. Hope everyone is keeping warm and cosy.

Here are a couple of pictures of 'The Other', a little new production we made in December. We were honoured to have the incredible composer Dave Maric along with Elo Masing creating a live improvised soundtrack to it. We shall be performing it again end of Feb/March and will certainly keep you posted when and where it shall be.

Whoops, It Is Raining Already But Here's A Little Summer Update
Thursday 4th October, 2012

Dearest Friends,

Summer is long gone and the trees are changing colour. Hope you all have had a wondrous one. We have been rather rubbish at updating our Summer whereabouts due to being caught up with various different project all through the past three months.  We managed to fit in a few events, one of them a wonderful Festival Number 6 where we performed in the most beautiful setting in the middle of the woods, wild and magical. We are still hunting for pictures from our show and will put them up as soon as get hold of some.. The picture of the Woodland Trail is from the excact spot where we performed.

And a summery picture below is of us amongst some foliage, courtesy of Laeony Jones. Autumnal updates to follow.

Until then, keep warm and don't let the rain catch you,
