Standard Theatre Seated | Christmas Show| Age 3+
Enter the incredible world of Stuff and Nonsense.
There’s a wolf coming… but for now, The Three Little Pigs have tricked him onto a bus. If he catches them, he’ll huff and he’ll puff and we all know how that ends…
On the run and with the need to build a strong shelter, our three problem-solving pigs call on you to save their bacon. Be blown away by the world of Stuff and Nonsense in this joyful retelling of a classic tale. Told in a unique physical style with raucous puppets, this is high-octane family theatre that will make you howl!
Suitable for all the family (recommended for ages 3-10).
Directed by Niki McCretton. Music by Jeremy Bradfield.
