- Adults £8 Members, £8.50 non members, Children £6 members, £6.50 non members
Performance at 1pm, followed by puppet making workshop
The Toy Maker is in his workshop, making toys for the children when all of a sudden they come to life to tell the story of The Snow Queen.
Follow Gerda on her adventures as she sets out to rescue her brother Kai from the evil Snow Queen who is holding him prisoner in her ice palace and meet the magical creatures who help her on her mission.
It’s a wonderful tale of The Snow Queen told through the eyes of puppets Gerda and Kai.
Join them on their adventures; watch Paul Batten of Theatrix Arts perform this magical story through puppets, changing scenery, music and sound effects. Then meet the puppets and create you very own Puppet of a character from the show!
From a member of the audience The Lyric Theatre London:
“This was such a wonderful show. The combination of simple shadow puppetry, story telling and music transported my four year old daughter (and 39 year old me!) into a magical world.”
This event is accessible via lift or stairs.
Suitable for ages 4 and up.
Performance duration approximately 40 minutes followed by the puppet making workshop for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
