Dynamic New Animation (DNA) is devoted to the promotion of puppetry as an art form to people of all ages, races, ethnic origins and abillites through performance, educational workshops and development work. We present visually stimulating, accessible entertaining performance that encourage audiences of all ages to live happier, healthier and more productive lives with a strong sense of well-being and empowerment, encouraging active participation in all aspects of society.

The performance artform of puppetry is central to all of the company's work. The creative team of Adam Bennett and Rachel Riggs are highly experienced both in creating performances and performing in shows created by other puppetry or visual theatre companies. Prior to company formation, both Adam and Rachel had successful freelance careers and Dynamic New Animation builds upon the successes of their previous touring theatre productions, workshops and collaborations. Alongside the creation of performances, DNA also creates showcases, festivals, educational workshops and residencies, artwork and installations.
