in control? The fanfarist must deal with devices both endearing and unpredictable. Physical theatre, humour, and puppetry shape this sweet story filled with lively music and disobedient machines.

Felicity Falls

RAG & BONE PUPPET THEATRE, ONTARIO

This adaptation combines puppetry by Grace Kiely and Neasa Ní Chuanaigh with stunning puppets by Suse Reibish. With a magical original score by Colm Mac Con Iomaire and directed by Marc Mac Lochlainn. Branar’s signature storytelling creates a show which remind us all to follow our dreams.

Once upon a time a group of animals had to find a new place to live. They crossed grey, rocky mountains and found a green valley, a blue river and a small waterfall. The valley had everything they needed, so they built houses there, and a mill — and they called their village “Felicity Falls”. Rag & Bone Puppet Theatre delivers warm funny stories about life’s little problems – like a lost teddy bear or a leaky roof. In a series of short stories, the show follows the everyday lives of a group of animals as they build their home and their community in the Ottawa Valley.
