From family shows to enchanting interactive puppetry walkabouts and workshops, the work combines some extraordinary dancing life size puppets,carnivalesque figures, masks, dance theatre, song and sculptural costumes. Tanya brings to life amazing characters/creatures and shows, her inspiration comes from her Latin American and European heritage, her mother’s stories, the stories and myths that abound in the land of her birth Colombia and the place she now lives in Yorkshire. One of the greatest achievements is that Tanya the creative force of Cusan Theatre, has introduced thousands of people of all ages from all walks of life not only to dance and theatre but to Latin American Culture.
To inspire children in the theatre requires even greater story-telling ability than what might be perceived or even enjoyed by adult audiences, to get inside the minds of nature’s greatest critics and quite often biggest supporter when engaged properly, is of the upmost importance.To make children care about the world around them is significant, to let their unbound imagination flourish in a way that sees them appreciate theatre as part of the solution, that is the greatest of gifts that an actor or entertainer can bestow'.

'Para inspirar a los niños en el teatro se requiere una habilidad narrativa aún mayor que la que podría percibir o incluso disfrutar el público adulto, entrar en la mente de los mayores críticos de la naturaleza y, con frecuencia, el mayor partidario cuando se involucra adecuadamente, es de suma importancia. Hacer que los niños se preocupen por el mundo que los rodea es significativo, dejar que su imaginación desatada florezca de una manera que los vea apreciar el teatro como parte de la solución, ese es el mayor de los regalos que un actor o animador puede otorgar'.
