Hopeful Monsters

From simple organisms to complex beasts! A story of evolution told entirely with hands.

Constantly shifting and changing, human hands move and morph in unusual ways, creating unexpected creatures.

With no central character, Hopeful Monsters flows between water, land and air, on a strange and mesmerising journey through nature.

A non-verbal piece of visual theatre set to an emotive and humorous soundtrack, through innovative hand puppetry, a single element is pushed to its limit – discovering how much it can do and become.
