Biggar Puppet Theatre

About this place

Victorian-style puppet theatre showing marionette performances year-round.

This Victorian-style puppet theatre in Biggar stages traditional marionette performances year-round, using genuinely hand-crafted puppets and sets rather than a modern, screen-based approach to storytelling. It's a distinctive, old-fashioned kind of entertainment that's become increasingly rare, giving children a chance to see a form of theatre very different from what they'd typically encounter today. Performances are generally scheduled around school holidays and weekends, so it's worth checking the programme before visiting. There's a charge for tickets, and the venue is fully indoors and accessible.
