Everyone at the Harlequin is saddened to hear of the death today of puppeteer Ronnie Le Drew.

Ronnie was most famous for performing and voicing TV’s Zippy, but he was a master at marionettes too and was last at the Harlequin in November assisting in our marionette masterclass workshop.

Ronnie was a true gentleman and he will be missed by so many, his life and legacy will live on.

This week we’ve ticked off a task we’ve been waiting a very long time to do, the foyer floor has been freshly painted and restored to its former glory!

It was last painted in the mid 1990s by Eric Bramall himself, but over the years it had sadly faded. Seeing it brought back to life has been a real joy, and we’re absolutely delighted with the result.

We can’t wait for you to see it!
