New Custom Pelham-Style Puppets Join New Bern Puppets

Some beautiful and charming additions to our New Bern Puppet repertoire of marionettes. All custom made by David Leech in the Pelham Puppet style in England. So fabulous – we are excited to include them in future performances.

They arrived October 15th and here they are, newly unpacked from England. Click images to enlarge.

Our Gingerbread Man – looks like he just stepped off a baking sheet. He will be a delightful addition to a Christmas show!

A touch of blarney here! Introducing our little leprechaun from the Emerald Island. With his red hair and beard, pointed ears, and crumpled top hat, he will be a whimsical character at a St. Patrick’s Day show.

We hope to begin giving performances featuring our Native-American marionettes. This wise elder will bring solemnity to the shows. Notice the attention to detail – the elder wears a fur like mantle – perfect costuming.

This dainty little fairy should be a big hit with the girls. She is beautiful and charming. Her feathery wing costuming is colorful and exquisite.
