The Birdman plus Monkey Business, Puppet Theatre Barge
Puppet Theatre Barge presents a double bill: The Birdman and Monkey Business
The atmospheric Puppet Theatre Barge is one of London's best-kept secrets. The little-known theatre is the antithesis of television, and often hosts our favourite puppet show productions. The barge docks in Little Venice, but the ship sails down to Richmond for a whirlwind marionette tour.
This March, the Puppet Theatre Barge will host a double bill. Get your sea legs and clamber aboard this dramatic vessel for two exciting new shows.
Monkey Business
Monkey Business will be shown on its own from 5 – 7 May
Monkey Business, Puppet Theatre Barge

Prepare for stilt-walking, juggling, and trapeze as these masterful monkeys put on a show to remember.
