On the day that Aardman celebrated a chart-topping opening weekend in the US with Wallace & Gromit ‘The Curse of the Were-rabbit’, there was news of a fire at their storage unit.
The facility was used to store sets, awards, and historical artefacts, and was not a part of the Aardman studio, and no
Aardman staff have been affected. However, a number of irreplaceable storyboards, awards, props and pieces of film memorabilia from our 30 year history were lost in the blaze.
None of the material from the new Wallace & Gromit film ‘The Curse of the Wererabbit’ was in storage at the
time, but many original sets from Chicken Run, Creature Comforts, and the three Wallace & Gromit short films, that were used for reference and toured around the world for exhibition were lost.
The blaze will not in any way affect existing or future Aardman productions as 100% of sets and props are purpose built for each production.
