Founded by Isabel Lyster Paper Jungle is a creative design and theatre company. based in Stroud creating innovative puppetry performance that plays with forms of visual storytelling.
Offering shows for family audiences, engaging all ages using humour, captivating storytelling and beautiful design. With stories at the centre, they explore puppetry in its many forms, constantly amazed at the ability they have to connect with the audience on a deep emotional level.
Their recent production Three Suns weaves together innovative puppetry, storytelling and live music telling three stories from three different continents- from Africa, to Europe, to Asia.
Like many others the coronavirus pandemic has meant that Paper Jungle has had to postpone all their tours and commissions. They are currently running a crowdfunding campaign which will enable them to create an illustrated storybook for their show Three Suns that can be delivered to kids during isolation, make creative workshops accessible to families online - providing content for children being homeschooled and help support the future tour of Three Suns.
