A Bird, A Tree, The Moon is the most recent production by Melbourne visual theatre company Peepshow Inc. The pesky skeleton bird puppet is a lovely! Directed by Melinda Hetzel and performed by Nick Barlow and Angela Orrego, the show played to passers-by outdoors at night in City Square.  Alison Croggon has a great review.

It sounds as if the inaugural Tarrengower Puppetfest was very succesful. The Tarrengower Times has a gallery of photos from the weekend taken by Andrew Hobbs.

The National Theatre and Global Creatures are seeking performers /puppeteers  for its upcoming production of War Horse, which will open at the Arts Centre in Melbourne, January 2013.  Their casting brief (pdf) gives details and who to contact if you are interested.
