Nick Tickle, Fairy Tale Detective
Puppet and Costume Design
In the whimsical world of Nick Tickle, Fairy Tale Detective, chaos reigns as Granny Possum discovers that she can't tell her favorite fairy tales—someone dastardly has been stealing the iconic props! Breadcrumbs, magic beans, a basket of goodies, and even a glass slipper have vanished without a trace. This playful and engaging production combines live actors and puppets in a delightful fusion of storytelling, with plenty of opportunities for audience participation.
The puppets, constructed using foam and hand-and-rod techniques, bring the characters to life with charm and creativity. The lineup includes a 3-foot-tall Granny Possum, a lively 2-foot Frog, and a whimsical Narrator. Together, they guide the audience through a fun-filled adventure where the boundaries between fairy tales and detective mysteries blur in the most entertaining ways.
