The Paper Escaper

This beautiful and bright puppetry work from Terrapin Puppet Theatre tells a story of determination, friendship and the power of following your own path.

Benny, the plucky puppet protagonist in The Paper Escaper, knows they are destined for greater things than a simple pop-up book. But in a world that’s trying to squash Benny between its pages – from wily dancing fire to a disillusioned illustrator – they will need the help of new friends to achieve their dreams.
