Paper Shaper Coming Soon

Paper Shaper Coming Soon


Little Dog Barking Childrens Theatre is pleased to announce that we are bringing Paper Shaper to both Lower Hutt and Kapiti these April 2015 School Holidays.

We are performing at the Little Theatre, 2 Queens Drive, Lower Hutt on the 14th April - 10am and 11:30am and at Kapiti Playhouse, 7 Ruahine Street Paraparaumu on the 15th April at 10am, 11.30am and 1.30pm.

Little Dog Barking is a leading puppet theatre for children, creating and presenting quality theatre works for early childhood, primary school and family audiences.

Suitable for ages 2 - 10 years old (up to and including Year 6). Plenty of free parking available.

Paper Shaper is a charming story about a mischievous little man who lives in a rubbish bin....

This tale, devised by director Peter Wilson and puppet designer Tim Denton, with music by Gareth Farr, needs no dialogue to communicate to its junior audience. It is suitable for all languages as there is no spoken word.

The story springs straight from the realms of imagination and curiosity that children inhabit. What happens to that little man on the side of the rubbish bin when no-one is looking? He creates a whole universe out of people’s paper, with a paper sun, paper trees, paper flowers and paper butterflies. When a long-faced but cheerful man visits the Paper Shaper’s park for a picnic, the two start out as opponents, but soon become playmates and finally, friends.

Papershaper last year won Best International Drama at the First Asian Pacific Puppet Festival in 2014

Tickets $9 per adult / child (under 2's are free):
