For anyone interested, here is a 52-minute talk from Toby Olié, Audrey Brisson and James Charlton about how they developed the Jiminy Cricket puppet, with a bit of talk about the other puppets.

Just watched the You Tube video, so thanks fior posting the link. With stuff like this, I was find it a useful watch after seeing the show which I had mixed feelings about to try and get a better understanding of the thought processes that the producers went through when putting the production on stage.
After watching the video, I still think that overall, it was a bit of a mixed bag show. Some of it worked, I particularly enjoyed the special effects, and the realisation of the whale, but as others have previously noted, for me the two biggest issues where it’s lack of identity of what it actually was ( play with some songs or a full musical) as well as the lack of expression in the puppets faces. Overall, not a terrible night out at the theatre, though I did feel it was a missed opportunity to put something truly magical on stage.
