Animals!
Presented by By Den and Signals.
Everyone’s here for the AGM – the Animals’ General Meeting – but as usual one species hasn’t turned up, and it’s the species which has been causing all the trouble… The humans.
Buzzard, Rabbit and Porpoise know that something’s got to be done, but they need you to grab your species ID badge, step into the paws of your favourite creatures and help the humans work out how to be better neighbours to all the other animals. Whatever happens, it’s going to be wild!
Fun, interactive and featuring original songs, Animals! is an empowering and uplifting performance about animals, humans and nature. It celebrates the amazing wildlife around us and makes big things feel possible.

Puss in Boots

The classic furry tale is brought to life with clever effects.
Would you trust a talking cat?
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. Using smoke and mirrors and hidden trapdoors we’ll show you how this sure-footed feline fools both the King and the Ogre to take his master all the way to 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!

The Amazing Bubble Man
Louis Pearl thrills with the art, magic, science and fun of bubbles.
Louis Pearl has been thrilling audiences around the world for over 30 years with the art, magic, science and fun of bubbles. He is a favorite at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, where he has enjoyed twelve years of sell-out success.
Louis explores the breath-taking dynamics of bubbles, combining comedy and artistry with audience participation and enough spellbinding bubble tricks to keep everyone mesmerized. From square bubbles, bubbles inside bubbles, fog-filled bubbles, giant bubbles, bubble volcanoes, tornados and trampolines to people inside bubbles, the Amazing Bubble Man conjures shrieks of laughter and gasps of amazement from all ages.
Most shows will also feature multi instrumentalist Jet Black Pearl accompanying Louis with bubbly music to double your pleasure.
"Greatest bubble show on Earth." SFGate.com
"It's a fantastic show. Louis Pearl playfully forms bubbles beyond imagination, and engages the audience with his easygoing nonverbal slapstick."
"Louis Pearl - aka The Amazing Bubble Man - truly deserves his title. Most of the show is accompanied by gasps and awes...and that's just the adults. Kids can be heard giggling with excitement."
"This show captivated its young audience and the adults loved it as well. Highly recommended." British Theater Guide.
“The show is one giant, joyous caper” The Wee Review
The eight year-old seated beside this reviewer summed it up neatly during the show, proclaiming after one nifty manoeuvre, ‘he sure is the amazing bubble man.’ The Wee Review
