Practical Puppetry - An Exploration of Self by Regina Foo

Inspired by Inclusive Young Company’s show Meet Fred, the workshop focuses on puppetry as a tool for expression, creativity, and inclusivity. Conducted by theatre practitioner Regina Foo, this hands-on session takes you through the philosophy of puppetry, forming ideas and bringing them to life using ordinary objects, and tell your stories! 

This work is open to participants of all abilities and needs. Suitable for youths aged 12 and above. No prior experience in puppetry is required – just bring your enthusiasm and imagination!

Regina Foo

Regina enjoys the process of theatre-making as a prism to experience the facets of life, to open minds and to indulge in the colourful spectrum of human emotions both light and dark. She aspires to tap on the power of theatre as an intimate space where people can share stories to find strength, courage and hope to live, as life pulls us in many directions.

Since her graduation from the Intercultural Theatre Institute in 2017, she has been focused on developing her theatre practice with the TYA (Theatre for Young Audiences) and the Disability communities. She is also currently exploring projective play through puppetry and object manipulation.
