A fantastical puppet adventure, At Sea is an uplifting tale of a sailor’s triumph over darkness.
Our Sailor is lost without their Heart Compass. Journeying through coral reefs, a siren’s lair and to the very bottom of the ocean, can they escape the belly of the beast and find their way home?
Enjoy this non-verbal show, featuring stunning projections and music.
Suitable for ages 6+

Scottish Falsetto Socks Do ShakespeareBack by popular demand, the award-winning Socks present their hit show all about the works of Shakespeare. From Hamlet to Othello, Romeo and Juliet to Richard III and all points in between. A ridiculous hour of songs, sketches, socks & violence from Earth's funniest footwear.
Robin Hood & His Animal FriendsThis 40-minute immersive theatre experience is packed with playful panto moments, larger-than-life puppets, and plenty of audience interaction. Robin Hood & his Animal Friends is a joyful, family-friendly show celebrating teamwork, bravery, and care for our environment.
An Introduction To Puppetry WorkshopThis fun and interactive two hour workshop offers an introduction to the art of puppetry. Starting with lots of warm up games and puppetry specific exercises, participants will be shown how to make a simple paper puppet and will create a short performance piece to share with the group
The Sex Lives of PuppetsFunny, shocking and often surprisingly tender, this collaboration between puppets and the National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles creates a safe space to talk about sex in all its wonderous iterations. Not so much 'the birds and bees', more the 'nuts and bolts'.
Roald Dahl's The Enormous CrocodileThe Enormous Crocodile is weaving his way through the jungle to the Theatre Royal in search of delicious little fingers and squidgy podgy knees… Only the other jungle creatures can foil his secret plans and clever tricks, but they’re going to have to find a large amount of courage to stop this…
Flyaway KatieBased on the popular children’s book by Polly Dunbar with music by Tom Gray of Gomez.
