“Once in every childhood there should be a show that you remember for the rest of your life.
This will be my children’s”
Parent at Your Toys, Warwick Arts Centre
Which one of Your Toys is ready for an adventure?
What do Buzz Lightyear, Barbie and that stray Lego piece from behind the fridge have in common? They’re all setting off on a wild journey together as Slot Machine Theatre bring their extraordinary puppetry skills to a show like no other – where every character is one of your very own toys!
Packed with music, belly laughs and plenty of surprises, Your Toys is a heart-warming story about new friends pulling together – an anthem to the power of play that will send you home grinning from ear to ear.
Created in workshops with children, the show brims with their brilliant, inventive – and wonderfully bonkers – ideas; making it a truly joyous, unique piece of theatre.
And the best part? Children (and their grown-ups!) are invited to bring along a toy, lend it to us for the performance, and watch it come to life on stage! (You’ll get it back at the end – don’t worry!)

Caroline Partridge, Course Leader
Slot Machine Theatre’s mentoring and training projects spring from our collaborative roots as theatre makers, and the desire to share skills and support fellow practitioners. We are passionate about puppetry as an art form and working with theatre makers and performers to ensure that it is accessed as diversely as possible.
In the Summer of 2025 Slot Machine Theatre, in association with Birmingham Repertory Theatre, and supported by Little Angel Theatre and Black Country Touring, ran an intensive Puppeteering Course for performers from the global majority.
