Andrew Purvin

The Fetch Theatre is led by Purvin who has many years experience of directing and designing for the professional stage. He is also an internationaly renowned puppeteer and puppet maker. 

His work is visual rather than word based. He has developed, over time, a unique style of telling stories with few or no words. He is also committed to passing on his skills and passion for puppetry to all ages, abilities and backgrounds.

‘Thanks to theatre, I have had the opportunity to work in the wild mountains of Portugal, the flat plains of the Punjab and run workshops in the pine forests of Galilee.’
