Fuelling the imagination through the magic and wonder of puppetry

Upcoming shows at our venues

The Instrumentals

The Instrumentals

At her Grandfather’s wake, Belle is feeling down so she slips into the basement and discovers his old dusty instruments. But far from being junk, The Instrumentals are pure funk, and they teach Belle to ‘get down’ in a whole new way.

Bursting to life with brilliant puppetry and bold music, the Instrumentals is full of love and laughter, about the memories we hold and how we celebrate life. This is a show for all children with characters, story & inspiration from the African-Caribbean diaspora. It’s full of uplifting original music with soulful sounds and seventies grooves.

Aimed at ages 4 - 11

Julia Donaldson and David Roberts’ playful and adventurous story splashes into life in this adaptation featuring catchy songs, quirky bath toys and everyday heroes.

The Wolves in the Walls

The Wolves in the Walls

When Lucy hears noises from behind the walls, she tries to warn her family that there are wolves lurking inside their house. But her family don't listen. Then one day, the wolves come out, evicting Lucy and her family to live at the bottom of the garden.  But it’s not all over. Lucy gathers her courage, as her battle against the wolves is only just beginning. 

Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean’s spooky and hilarious tale comes to thrilling theatrical life in this frenzy of puppetry, songs, and shadow-play, directed by Toby Olié and featuring original songs by Adam Pleeth and Carl Grose.
