Nightmare

Mixing the thrill the side-show with the humour of vaudeville wrapped in spooky surrealism, Nightmare is an 9 minute blast performed inside a horse float.

After being ushered up the ramp by a macabre ringmaster,  the audience find themselves shut within the horse float and trapped in a nightmare world of pop-out puppets, miniature skeletons, sensory effects, runaway giant tongues and an unforgettable mind-altering climax.

Magical, scary, funny and curiously different.....I dare you to enter.

Nightmare was nominated for a Green Room Award in 2015.



‘I loved it! It was more than watching a show. I was experiencing it.’

‘Funny and scary at the same time.’ 

 ‘Great puppets. Very energetic. Very clever..’

‘Fab show. Well done. Best in fest!’ 

 Created by Eliza-Jane Gilchrist & Mark Penzak. Sound by Jacques Soddell. Costume by Lulu Lala.
Nightmare was commissioned by Castlemaine State Festival.
