Grist To The Mill

A chance to see fabulous new work in progress...

Horrified by the idea of 'Too Much Normal', Grist To The Mill's Isobel Smith uses puppets, found objects and installation to take a fresh look at the laundry, the kitchen sink, the cupboard under the stairs and mountains of used tea bags.

Following the 'call to the wild', she begins to liberate them and their contents from their humdrum existence and create something beautiful and extraordinary in the process.

'Grist To The Mill is one of the most exciting new companies emerging on the contemporary puppetry scene. The director Isobel Smith creates truly imaginative work from everyday objects which is skilfully delivered, droll and amusing as well as deeply moving' (Linda Lewis, Director, Puppet Centre Trust).
