An extraordinary, beautiful and funny walkabout puppet act from the Flying Buttresses that draws in crowds wherever it goes. Hodman Dodmanott and Sally Forth are two tiny adventurers from the country of Oblivia, with a lot on their minds and even more on their backs. Join these elderly amblers as they set out to discover the modern world, meet strange and exciting new people, and search for a decent place to camp!

This is one of the best loved acts around, delighting audiences around the world with its witty improvisation, charming characterisations, and utterly captivating effect.

Thank for sorting everything out for our event at the weekend. Please pass on our thanks to the Flying Buttresses who did a wonderful job and in such heat. It was a really successful event with everybody having a brilliant day.

'...I thought you were BRILLIANT! I hope you are enjoying your expedition, and I hope you have managed to stretch your budget of two mounds of earth and a carrot. My mummy said you were enchanting, and made her feel like she was in the film Labyrinth, which she loves. It was lovely to meet you both and I hope you have a wonderful Christmas.’

— Martin Kieran, aged three and three quarters
