Welcome to Sea Legs Puppet Theatre

Founded in 2001 by Artistic Director Rob Ashman, Sea Legs Puppet Theatre is a small touring puppet theatre.

Specialising in bringing fairytales to life, we love nothing more than bringing joy to children young and old through the magic of puppetry. We tour all year round and have several productions available. 

We mostly work in theatres, schools and festivals but also perform at children’s parties and various other suitable events. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you think we might be able to help. We’d love to hear from you.

“Sea Legs’ provides wonderful storytelling and puppetry. Entertaining both children and adults, I am always asked when they will be back. I cannot speak highly enough of the company and their skills!”
