We’ve been having fun on TikTok lately using characters from Larrikin Puppets to mime along to popular soundbites there. Here’s Flossy doing the Elsa call, and then Troggg with his response. Please follow @larrikinpuppets on TikTok and join in on all the fun!

Cuppycake Song with Marina
Part of the fun of TikTok is miming along to various soundbites. Each TikTok account tries to be creative with unique takes on how they present the dialogue or music available to them. Here is Marina being all cute and miming along to the Cuppycake song. Enjoy! And please follow @larrikinpuppets on TikTok and like all our little videos there.
Do You Ever Have A Dream? Marina and Troggg on TikTok
Do you ever have a dream? Marina tries to explain hers to Troggg on this silly little TikTok video. Please follow @larrikinpuppets on TikTok and like our videos there.
Part of the fun of TikTok is miming along to soundbites, music and dialogue from various sources. The challenge is to present your own take in a creative way. For us we felt that Marina would be the child’s voice talking about the dream, and Troggg would be the one listening and trying to stay attentive.
Troggg and the Cheesecake on TikTok
You can find Larrikin Puppets on TikTok with our silly short skits and songs. The TikTok handle for Larrikin Puppets is simply @larrikinpuppets. Here’s one such TikTok video of Troggg with the Cheesecake singing along with Louis Armstrong.

Chef Jason Roberts on Instagram Live with Larrikin Puppets
Troggg and Marina were special guests on Instagram Live with Chef Jason Roberts who cooked up some delicious meals for kids on his G’day Neighbour segment. Here’s the footage of Troggg and Marina with Chef Jason Roberts during the Instagram Live broadcast on Thursday, 9 April 2020 (during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown/isolation period).
In 2019, we visited Sydney a couple of times to film some footage with Chef Jason Roberts for a special TV pilot starring the puppets. All of this is on hold right now, so live streaming is where it’s at for all entertainers and people who produce both live theatre and film & TV media content.

Dance Like A Unicorn on Spotify
Our debut single “Dance Like A Unicorn” is now on Spotify! Our characters Marina (blue) and Scrambles (red) are the singers. Challenge: Can we get 1000 individual listens (ie. 1000 different phones) in its first week?
The single will not only be available on Spotify, but also on YouTube, Google Play, iTunes/Apple Music, and various other music streaming services. You can even hear a snippet of the track on TikTok, and people have already started using it on their little TikTok videos.
The other place where you can download Dance Like A Unicorn is BandCamp. The link is here: https://larrikinpuppets.bandcamp.com/track/dance-like-a-unicorn?fbclid=IwAR28k3Piz0oRXH1SToDjh3WCbNIFnSLUYYCaAcPfeOzYgdXBinlJeZm-mzE
At BandCamp you can choose to download it for $1 or more if you wish.
We’re hoping to get more than 1000 listens to Dance Like A Unicorn on Spotify so that the app starts tracking new listens. When a track has under 1000 listens, it is simply listed as “< 1000”. We would like to start seeing numbers beyond 1000.
Thanks for your support! And keep an eye out for more of our songs on Spotify, BandCamp and many other music streaming services!
