You can also read about the background to the showsĀ  – including the cardboard box theatre – on this BBC reportĀ – which also shows how other people have been building mini theatres for themselves, just with whatever’s lying around

You’re never too old for a picture book, and you’re never too old for a puppet show šŸ™‚
