Synopsis
  The gingham clad, slightly kooky but very kind Madame Lark and Miss Lark collect lost or discarded “once made-with-love” toys and bring them home to be loved again. Along the way, they show us a home-style slide show of how these much loved treasures came to be lost. A highly imaginative work, fluff delves into the secret lives of toys and plays with the way we endow toys with personalities.

  Fluff has been acclaimed for its originality, warmth, clever use of comedy and extraordinary combination of song, movement, sampling, projection and audience participation. The audience is drawn into the performance by the endearingly quirky characters who persuade them to create the soundtrack and invite them to wander around the fantastically kitsch retro set. Fluff is a simple, joyful and humorous tale told with a twist.
