Magical and powerful small-scale theatre featuring a beautiful set, puppets and original music.

Influenced by European folk tales, where magical and scary events can occur and choices are not always as straightforward as they seem, an evocative landscape and a simple tale can reveal an emotional journey. The Boy Who Opened Doors is a moving story about a young boy’s journey into adulthood, his ability to stand on his own two feet and make choices to achieve his goals. 

Intimate theatre choreographed to an original soundtrack,The Boy Who Opened Doors gently explores issues about growing up and gaining independence by presenting imaginative and creative theatre.  

Suitable for family audiences 6 years+, festivals, schools, community venues and conferences.

Touring from May 2010 onwards.

A half hour show, written for the company, performed using beautiful smaller-scale puppets on a stunning portable set, it is an ideal production for schools, conferences, community centres and festivals.

Suitable for family audiences

Postcards from Blackpool (working title) - Coming Soon

Blackpool image

From the ultimate seaside holiday destination comes a rollercoaster tale where dreams can be dreamt, broken or fulfilled. Under the shadow of Blackpool’s Tower, or amidst the glittering lights of the ballroom, showmen vie for your attention, your soul, your money. Romance blossoms and fortunes can be won or lost. A lonely, disorientating world for some, for others a chance to follow their dreams and become the hero, the belle of the ball - a star for a night!

As performers integrate with filmed footage from Blackpool join them to discover the glitzy, glamorous and dark side of the famous and evocative resort as their tale unfolds in a unique visual style.

Enquiries are welcomed by Cindy Watson or Jess Mackenzie. Details on the Contact Us page.
