FROG IN HAND
Set, Prop and Costume Design and Construction for theatre, dance and immersive experiences
Frog in Hand Productions Inc.
Frog in Hand was founded by Colleen Snell & Noelle Hamlyn - artistic collaborators and sisters. Since 2012, we have created over 45 original creations and hosted 3 interdisciplinary festivals.
Our works explore diverse perspectives, cultivate new creative relationships and challenge us all to listen for the stories that are seldom heard. We seek to create, perform, educate and contribute to meaningful social change through dance-theatre.
Our original works range from short works intended for celebrations and festivals to full length promenade and immersive performances. We create and perform in unusual spaces, bringing to life the buildings, community stories and the spaces we share.
As the Production Designer, Frog in Hand collaborations present an incredible canvas for creation, and wonderful opportunities for ethical and sustainable practices. Immersive sets, and costumes are typically designed and constructed using found or reused materials. Costumes and sets are recycled or repurposed. Thematically Frog in Hand work is renown for its exploration of dystopic futures and climate crisis.
