Puppet & Costume Maker

Theresa O'Connor makes puppets, costumes and props for theatre, television, events and festivals.

Theresa has trained under artists Philip Millar, Katrina Gaskell, Puppets in Prague, Gary Friedman, Duda Paiva, Stan Winston School of Character Arts and of course, her parents who taught her how to sew and build houses!

Puppet forms include roving puppets, shadow puppets, marionettes, carved foam puppets, rod puppets and hand puppets.  Theresa prefers to upcycle materials in the making process in order to promote a circular economy.

Based in Naarm / Melbourne at her studio at Arts House, get in touch to discuss your commission today
