Peppered with humorous incidents.

Psst
! is an enchanting show. The puppets devised in this show are tiny. Most of them no bigger than a human hand, the artists nevertheless create delightful, engaging characters who perform a variety of circus acts.

Despite their size, and with no speech, we can readily discern their personalities - loveable, petulant, vain. A wooden ballerina is part of the performance - adored by a loveable, stout member of the troupe, who watches in adulation as she performs virtuoso feats, beautifully executed by the artist.

Peppered throughout with humorous incidents the children loved it. And as a bonus, at the end of the show, the artists invited the children to come up to the stage and meet the puppets personally.
