Yana and the Yeti
- Artists
- Pickled Image, Hattie Naylor
Bristol puppetry geniuses Pickled Image have teamed up with Olivier-nominated writer Hattie Naylor and return with their latest stunning show for children featuring, of course, a real life Yeti.
Imagine being far, far from home and all alone, arriving in a remote snow-bound village, surrounded by dense forest and strange noises. This is how Yana’s story begins. She can’t understand a word anyone says and the other children tease her with tales of mythical mountain monsters. Then things start to get really hairy….
Featuring exquisite music, Arctic landscapes and a cast of extraordinary puppets, Yana and the Yeti is a funny and poignant tale of a small child’s discovery that friends can come in the most unexpected shapes and sizes.
This show was made in Northern Norway, above the Arctic Circle where Yetis still exist.
Written by Pickled Image and Hattie Naylor
Directed by Emma Lloyd.
Presented by Tobacco Factory Theatres’ BEYOND programme at the 1532 Performing Arts Centre, Bristol Grammar School.
