ABOUT OUR NEUTRAL PUPPETS
Inspired by the growing presence of puppetry in contemporary theatre, Strangeface Neutral Puppets provide an accessible and practical way to explore the expressive possibilities of figure and object performance.
Drawing on principles from Bunraku-style puppetry, these theatre puppets are designed to help performers develop clarity of movement, focus, and ensemble awareness. The neutral design allows the performer’s physicality and imagination to shape the character, making them particularly effective for actor training, devised theatre, and movement-based work.
Each puppet is carefully constructed with a strong internal armature that supports natural articulation while remaining robust enough for regular workshop use. Weighted hands and feet give the puppet a convincing sense of gravity, helping performers discover believable movement and stage presence.
Ideal for schools, universities, theatre companies, and puppetry workshops, these neutral puppets offer a versatile tool for exploring storytelling, character creation, and collaborative performance.
