Since then, he has toured with huge popularity, and his reputation for quality spreading by word of mouth to Surrey, Sussex, Kent, London and Hampshire performing to captivated audiences, who are whisked away to enchanted lands with his memorable fairy-tale productions.

The Plymouth Theatre Royal, The Windsor Arts Centre, The Worcester Festival and the Medway Arts Festival are just a few of the places where The Children's Marionette Theatre have performed their wonderful shows.
