Creating Wonder
with Puppetry, Storytelling and Music

Welcome to
Birdlife Productions,
where the power of puppetry and a great story brings wonderment to children's lives.

In this high-tech fast-paced digital world, we offer a counter to ‘screen time’
that allows space in ‘real-time’ for children to watch, listen and reflect.
We create live theatre that uses a ‘handmade’ aesthetic, both sophisticated yet accessible,
where the (apparent) simplicity of our craft creates space for magic to happen!

Join us in Pōneke for this exquisite puppet show featuring interactive songs, percussion, and gorgeous handmade puppets.
