Tall Stories: Mr Benn

Sun 17 Feb, 1.30pm & 4pm | Theatre | Tickets £8.50 | Ages 4-10Running time: 1 Hour

As if by magic, the shopkeeper appeared…

Tall Stories (creators of the Gruffalo and Room on the Broom stage shows) present their latest production, with catchy songs and astounding magic – for everyone aged 4 to 104, old friends of Mr Benn and new adventurers alike…

One ordinary day, Mr Benn receives an invitation to a fancy dress party – and comes across an extraordinary shop. As if by magic, the shopkeeper appears with an array of costumes, and shows him into the dressing room. Inside is a mysterious door that leads Mr Benn into incredible adventures, full of dragons, princesses and sea monsters…

Pied Piper: My Little Big Sister

Fri 22 & Sat 23 Feb, 11:30am & 2.30pm, Tickets £6 | Ages 5-8 | Foyle Studio |

Running time: 50 mins

My Big Little Sister is a play about growing up. Tom’s little sister Ruby always wants to have ‘grown-up’ things and to do ‘grown-up’ activities; all that freedom sounds like fun. But when Ruby’s wish comes true and she wakes up as a REAL grown up, Mum decides to take a well earned break, leaving Ruby in charge. Suddenly the responsibilities of juggling a job and looking after Tom and Nan don’t seem like so much fun.
