“A deliciously visceral experience that leaves the young audience with their skin tingling and their curiosity piqued”. The Guardian
A Cubic Feet and Monstro Theatre co-production, in association with Little Angel Theatre
MONSTRO was delighted to co-produce and create the musical soundtrack to this beautiful production by Cubic Feet (and Little Angel) directed and designed by our brilliant puppeteer friend Peter O’Rourke (designer of MONSTRO and Little Angel’s The Mouse Queen).
