You never know, he might turn you from a pauper to a prince just like the hero of this story, brought to vivid life on our incredible sloping stage by Patrick Lynch from Cbeebies. With smoke and mirrors and hidden trapdoors he'll show you how this sure-footed feline fools both the King and the Ogre to put his master at the top. With a host of puppets, a working windmill and an avalanche of fruit and nuts come and see this classic furry tail, it's the cat's whiskers!

T1534025091In the hours when most people are tucked up, sound asleep in their beds, Midnight the cat rules the roost. She explores the rooftops and alleyways of her town, encountering all the other creatures that are awake in the night. And in the still, quiet moments between one day finishing and the next one beginning, she has the ability to see and to understand all the dreams of the people sleeping in their beds below. But when a wild wind blows through the town, strange things begin to happen. Midnight is a dream-like show about time, the night and dreaming. And about clever cats and really silly dogs. For family audiences with children age 5+, Midnight combines beautiful puppetry, music and storytelling.Author Alison Duddle. Author Mark Whitaker. Director Alison Duddle. Music Chris Davies.

T02052654917Enter a land of enchanting forests, glorious meadows and magnificent castles in this new adaptation of Charles Perrault's Puss in Boots. The Miller's son is miserable: his father has died and whilst his brothers have inherited the mill, all he's been left is a 'stinking cat'. However, our perfectly preened Puss refuses to be downhearted and quickly sets the wheels of her enterprising plan into motion. With a teensy bit of luck and a whole lot of pluck (plus a little help from her good friends, the audience), Puss soon proves her worth by befriending the King, corralling a castle and seeing off an ogre - all in a day's work! This life-affirming tale filled with music and fun, is sure to delight and engage even the very youngest of audience members as well as anyone who's ever dreamt of their own happily ever after, reminding us all that - with the right attitude and some truly fabulous footwear - anything's possible!Author Charles Perraults.
