A handmade puppet with a paper-maché face, grey hair and green hands sits on a small tree-stump prop, surrounded by scattered leaves on the floor. Above the puppet is a red ribbon banner with the words: ‘CITY ARTS PRESENT… PUPPET CABARET’. At the bottom of the image, white text reads: ‘7PM, 27 NOVEMBER 2025. CITY ARTS, 11–13 HOCKLEY, NG1 1FH. BOOK VIA CITY-ARTS.ORG.UK/WHATS-ON’.

Enjoy an evening of puppetry and creativity at City Arts.

Puppet Cabaret will feature:

  • New work, short shows and scratch performances created by the artists of City Arts’ Puppet Club.
  • A mix of emerging and established puppeteers sharing original pieces they’ve developed.

As well as the live puppetry performances, during the interval you’ll get the chance to meet some of the evening’s characters up close, talk to their creators, and even enjoy a bit of puppet play yourself.

For ages 18+.
