Tarrare the Freak is a project which negotiates a model of puppetry as a practice-based analytic to deepen understanding of ethical and historical issues within the medical humanities. The piece showcased at the Bristol Festival of Puppetry (Tobacco Factory Theatres, September 2015) and Suspense Festival, London (New Diorama Theatre, November 2015), and toured the UK in 2017 including a 3-week run at Wilton’s Music Hall, London.

This item contains a link to an online resource which shows process evidence in the form of a blog by the creative team in collaboration with pathologist Dr Alan Bates (University College London), disability scholar Professor David Turner (Swansea University), and Dr John Lee, Director of University of Bristol's intercalated BA in Medical Humanities programme.
