Dead Puppet Society’s The Riddle of Washpool Gully is a gentle, imaginative piece of theatre that reminds us how powerful simple storytelling can be when it is placed in the hands of skilled theatre makers. Presented in the intimate Cremorne Theatre at QPAC, this revival of David Morton’s work unfolds like a story discovered in the pages of a beloved Australian picture book, quietly inviting the audience into a world where forgotten landscapes and mythical creatures still hold their secrets.
