History

Established in 1996.

Tall Poppies is a company of ten stilt walkers who have performed in 570 cities and towns worldwide. We are managed and directed by Jodie Foreman, who has over 14 years experience performing specialist stilt-​walking acts all over the world. Jodie also manages the Melbourne branch of Empress Stiltdance.

At Tall Poppies, we love performing, and thrive on providing the very highest quality of entertainment with our unique ‘larger than life’ characters. Our professionally trained performers specialize in beautiful movement and large scale puppetry, with the added bonus of comic and heartwarming audience interaction.

We personally love the performing life-​style. It envelopes us in a great variety of festivals and celebrations, and we all feel very privileged to be invited to so many wonderful events, year after year.
