Blind Summit - makers of Fringe hits The Table and Citizen Puppet - pull back the covers on puppet sexuality in contemporary Britain. What do puppets look like naked? Fancy some no strings sex? What are you doing with your hands? Not so much the "birds and bees", more the "nuts and bolts", of puppet intimacy. 'Inventive, silly and visually arresting comedy... with moments of real, heartfelt tenderness.' **** (Stage). 'Uproariously funny' **** (PlaysToSee.com). 'Is it too early to start talking about the best shows of the year?' ***** (BroadwayWorld.com).

We spoke to creator and performer Mark Down about The Sex Lives of Puppets, why he thinks it could be an aphrodisiac and how he wants the audience to feel after watching puppets bang on about banging for an hour.

Today we're doing a photoshoot. This is my first ever naked photo, and I have to say, as an older puppet, I'm excited.
