an engaging and heartwarming story about friendship, laughter and flying the nest - Inspired by the book “The Witch’s Egg” by Madeleine Edmondson

About

One performer and a flock of shadow puppets tell an engaging and heartwarming story about friendship, laughter and … flying the nest.

Witch does what witches do best… live in a nest, fly around scaring people and eating biscuits. She's a miserable, bad tempered old witch who doesn't like company, the last thing she wants in her life is an giant EGG!

Should she have it for breakfast or hatch it? And what will she do once it hatches? Her neighbours have plenty of advice for her but Witch decides to ignore them and go it alone.

One performer and a flock of shadow puppets tell an engaging and heartwarming story about friendship, laughter and flying the nest. Inspired by the book "The Witch's Egg" by Madeleine Edmondson.

And after each show there is an opportunity for the audience to become performers with some hands-on shadow puppetry for everyone.

* Suitable for ages 3+
