About Clay & Paper Theatre:
Out amongst the community bake-ovens and lush gardens of Toronto's Dufferin Grove Park, Clay & Paper Theatre has been changing the world. Completely. Irrevocably. Medieval mystery plays, Punch and Judy shows, African myths, Indonesian shadow puppetry, Native Canadian masks - all these and more have been influencing Clay & Paper Theatre since its birth in 1994. This is theatre on the ground, for the groundlings, in the park and on the street. This is theatre of exaggeration, of giant puppetry, of satire and wit gone awry. This is a little theatre company asking big questions with humour and irreverence. This is Clay & Paper Theatre.
Mandate:
Clay & Paper Theatre's mandate is to create, develop and perform multi-disciplinary, community-driven theatrical works using narrative theatre and large-scale puppetry in public spaces for large and diverse audiences. Clay & Paper Theatre produces plays, pageants and parades with the community, grounded in the idea that performance in public space is an act of cultural transformation. Our practice of building, rehearsing, and performing in full public view is an attempt on our part to "bring back the commons," reunite art with the daily life of the community, and to make art accessible to all.

About CYCLOPS: Cycling Oriented Puppet Squad:
Clay & Paper's bicycle-based theatre project Cyclops: Cycling Oriented Puppet Squad, rolled out in the summer of 2009. This mobile performance squad animates and energizes environmental and cycling events across Toronto from May to August, bringing theatre and cycling enthusiasm to the unsuspecting public.
As we take our unique brand of theatre to the streets, we aim to develop new performance venues and enliven Toronto's public spaces while drawing attention to urban environmental issues and promoting active living. Thanks to funding from the Ontario Trillium Foundation, Cyclops will continue to bring the bicycle revolution to the city in the summers of 2010 and 2011.
