Details

A roguish Soldier finds himself in possession of a tinderbox, a very special tinderbox which gives him the power to magically summon three extraordinary dogs to do his bidding. These dogs bring him riches beyond his wildest dreams, but his fortunes quickly take a turn for the worse in the big city where your charms are counted by the penny. The Norwich Puppet Theatre breathes new life into Hans Christian Andersen's classic tale of magic, bravery and love. The retelling of this well-loved fairytale combines puppetry, animation and music to create a memorable and touching performance that will captivate the hearts of audiences big and small.
