The Sex Lives of Puppets

About

Monday 29 & Tuesday 30 June 2026
Theatre Royal
Tckets from £25.50

Just back from touring the USA and Denmark, after a sell out run and rave reviews at Southwark Playhouse and Edinburgh Festival, puppet masters, Blind Summit Theatre are bringing The Sex Lives of Puppets, the show that pulls back the covers on puppet sex in contemporary Britain, to the Theatre Royal as part of Nottingham Puppet Festival 2026.

Funny, shocking and often surprisingly tender, this collaboration between puppets and the National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles creates a safe space to talk about sex in all its wonderous iterations. Not so much 'the birds and bees', more the 'nuts and bolts'.

Age guidance 18+

Part of the Nottingham Puppet Festival
