Carved wooden marionette in the form of a Music Hall ball-juggler. Ivory, black and red painted face and eyes with black dots for pupils. Strongly carved mouth, moustache and ears. Oval wooden yoke and fairly heavy pelvis with material torso, thickly stuffed,. Lower leg with shaped knees and tongue for joint on upper leg. Wooden turned up toes, shod in velvet slippers. Original two piece costume; black and dark pink silk - lace ruffles at neck and knees; silver sequins on seams and edges, with some groups of three sequins on the black material. Black stockings. Two control bars; bar 1 a modern replacement with strings run through balls to the left and right hand of figure. Bar 2 with seven notches - 3 in use + one screw eye with 'run through' (goes through right ball and joins to right toe); one string from top of head through left. ball and fixed to screw eye on right of bar. Bowing (to between legs) string attached to third notch in from right. Head strings to extreme ends. Staple behind/above left heel to pull leg up and back. Unique Carved wooden marionette from the Tiller troupe. Speciality act figure representing a ball-juggler. Made by the Tiller family circa 1870 to 1890. This is one of 35 marionettes from the Tiller-Clowes troupe, one of the last Victorian marionette troupes in England. Marionette shows were a popular form of entertainment for adults in the 19th century, many of them family concerns which travelled around the country long before the advent of film and television, presenting shortened versions of London's latest popular entertainment from melodramas and pantomimes to minstrel shows and music hall. In the 18th and early 19th centuries their theatres were relatively makeshift, but after about 1860 many became quite elaborate, with walls constructed from wooden shutters, seating made from tiered planks of wood, and canvas roofs. The figures were carved, painted, dressed and performed by members of the company. This is a ball juggler, who was quite complicated to operate since the balls can be juggled to rest on his feet, hands or head. He would have been a very popular turn in a marionette music hall show, and is wearing his original costume.
