RUST
low life on the high seas!
RUST is a puppetry performance by Green Ginger. RUST is about truth, passion, sex and death. The audience is exposed for grotesque puppets, special effects and absurd, anarchist British humour, in a performance which is to a certain degree puppetry's response to punk.

In the performance RUST we encounter a colourful person gallery in two pirate radio stations, stationed on each their vehicle outside the Wales coast. The young journalist trainee Spike involuntarily is entangled in rough rivalry between stations onboard the rusty damp boat and the leaking submarine.

"Deliciously deranged...blissfully bizarre."
Metro****
"Ingeniously dark aesthetic"
The Times
"Told with boisterous good nature and a huge amount of energy (...) there are elements of Rust which you think must have been created under the influence of questionable substances but the script is erudite. It is grounded in story progression and is snappy and full of unruly humour. Rust is classily absurd, anarchic stuff with a heart. That's a combination worth travelling for."
British Theatre Guide
"Radical and edgy are used to describe Green Ginger and their touring show Rust continues their reputation. Stunning (...) extraordinary visual images. The audience absolutely loved it, they were clearly enjoying themselves hugely."
Saturday Review/BBC RADIO 4
"A lusciously dark, cartoon aesthetic...their puppets are gorgeous".
Culture Wars
"Brimming over with briny ingenuity...you'll marvel at the grossly meticulous craftsmanship that has gone into the making and manipulation of these freakish creatures."
