In April 2010, Green Ginger will take a team of puppeteers to Houston, Texas to perform in Welsh National Opera's award-winning production of Tchaikovsky's Queen of Spades.

The puppeteers include Sarah Wright, Steve Tiplady (Indefinite Articles), Amy Rose (Bocadalupa) Jonny Dixon (Muzzle) and Chris Pirie from Green Ginger.

VOXPUPS
Green Ginger's French-based film unit spent the month of August collaborating with Tobacco Factory to present a Summer School in puppet film-making at The Park in Knowle West, Bristol.

Terry Lee and Laurence de Jonge delivered this one-off project for young people in the community, giving them a unique opportunity to be involved in making a film using specially created puppets.
The finished film called 'KnowleEDGE' was premiered at Bristol Festival of Puppetry in September 2009.
