Every year the theatre hosts a range of visiting companies and showcases the best in national and international puppetry and object-based theatre. It is also home to a professional company, who perform at the Theatre and also tour.

These range from tots’ workshops for 18 month – 5 year-olds, to animation workshops for 9 – 16 year-olds.
