Originally performed as a Christmas show in December 2003, this production toured schools during Christmas 2004, 2006 and in December 2007 enjoyed a one week run at The Crescent Theatre, Birmingham.
In January 2007 I adapted The Elves & the Shoemaker so it could be performed all year round and enjoyed various performances with it including a sell-out show at The Roses in Tewkesbury .
“It was wonderful to see the children sit enthralled for an hour by one man and his puppets – who needs technology!”– Del Francis, Headteacher, Canon Pyon Primary School, Herefordshire.
When a beautiful princess visits the poor old Shoemaker to buy the exquisite shoes that mysteriously appear on his workbench, he can’t believe his luck. Just who is creeping into the Shoemaker’s workshop every night and weaving this wonderful magic?
Set around a fairytale fireplace and using highly expressive puppets, Sea Legs invites you into a magical storybook world, to be captivated by this truly heart-warming production.
For children age 3+
