Salt and Poppet Theatre is a bijou puppetry company based in Melbourne, Australia. We create seasoned puppet projects combining the construction and performance of puppets, in order to break down boundaries and peel open the envelope of ordinary life. Our work is daring and different, combining art forms to create new and exciting work for young and old.
Theresa O’Connor, Lead Artist at Salt and Poppet, created Inside the Walls during her Children’s Literature Fellowship at the State Library of Victoria, with added assistance from Creative Victoria and Auspicious Arts Projects.
It has played at the Melbourne Puppetry Festival, Melbourne Fringe Festival, sold out at the National Theatre and by popular demand with a Fringe Artist Grant it returns to Adelaide for it's second season.

Any younger please read this note from the Creators: We have had 2 year olds love it but also be scared by it. We use the following guide: if your child is afraid of things under the bed or loud noises in the dark of the night, perhaps it's not for them. But then again, perhaps it may help them overcome these fears.
