Fidget Theatre presents… The Elves and the Storyteller
The Storyteller was once the host of a dazzling show, with acts full of laughter and song which enchanted audiences far and wide. Nowadays, The Storyteller spends much of their time alone; the acts have long since left, dust and quiet has settled on the well-trodden stage and their love of stories has faded away.
But Pip, and their excitable apprentice Dorrit, are Elves on a mission! A mission from Father Christmas himself. A mission to spread joy. Pip has never failed a mission, but this one is proving very tricky; The Storyteller seems to have lost all their magic and sparkle.
Can Pip, Dorrit and their expert Elf team re-ignite The Storyteller’s love for stories, songs, and laughter and spread joy in time for Christmas?
An original take on the classic fairytale, The Elves and the Storyteller features playful storytelling, original songs, friendly audience participation and a warm welcome to all.
A Pay-What-You-Decide family friendly event, recommended for ages 3-7 years old. This is a relaxed performance. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
