Join 6FootStories in South Ockendon for this riotous mixture of potato crafts workshop and potato performance.
The potato. The root of all good meals. And the root of all good stories.
Come to 6FootStories’ Playground in South Ockendon and learn about the myths of our ancestors. Choose a character from an ancient story and choose a spud. Carve, paint and decorate your spud until you have recreated your character, retell your ancient myth, and complete its voyage from the past to the present…
The Potato Puppet Playground has elements for all – those who are a little shy can simply sit back in the Potato Parlour and enjoy the tales. Those who are feeling creative can get busy and make puppets, with all sorts of tools and paints and bits and bobs to decorate with. If they want, they can go to town and create standalone Potato Paintings – the most impressive are then housed in the Potato Gallery and used as backdrops in the Potato Theatre. And of course, for the budding bards, the promising players, there is every opportunity to perform and become a temporary member of the troupe!
No need to book a place, just turn up and join in!
