2026-08-08T12:19:58+02:00

Mr Punch after failing as a parent sparks off a series of events with a host of characters as he defies attempts to punish him for his misdeeds in this traditional slapstick morality tale.

Meeting on the way amongst others a policeman, a crocodile, a doctor and the devil himself.

Mr Punch uses violence to thwart the powers of good sense but always carries the audience with him.

Punch the lovable rogue appeals to our inner rebel and manages to escape punishment with his personality intact.

That's the Way to do it

Many people have never seen a traditional Punch and Judy Show.

While the flavour of each individual performance depends on the puppeteer or Punch Professor and of course upon the audience, a typical Punch and Judy show will contain the classic story involving a range of characters.

It's a moral tale derived from the Italian commeddia dell'arte theatre which has survived the test of time. With a variety of interlinked skits featuring Mr Punch and his famous interactions with the other Punch and Judy show characters the audience is pulled headfirst into the world of Punchinello.

Performed from a striped puppet booth our show is suitable for all the family. It has been performed at numerous events including festivals and fetes and is a highly interactive puppet show with a traditional story-line. Frequently re-booked for events Mr Punch is uncompromising in his behaviour but loved by young and old nonetheless.

For schools and groups wishing to incorporate the show as a part of their history and culture teaching - the vocabulary used in the show can be adjusted to suit the age and ability of the students.

The show is suitable for UK primary schools looking at topics around Victorian England, Seaside, Puppetry and culture in the UK.

For those who would prefer not to book a fully traditional Punch and Judy show we recommend Toby and the Sausages which takes some of the most loved characters and scenes and re-imagines them without the overt violence of the traditional show.
