The Unicorn Theatre is presenting a fabulous summer season of shows for young audiences
From storybook adaptations to circus spectacles, there’s something for all ages.
Running from 17th May to 16th June, The Princess and The Pea (ages 2+) combines breathtaking acrobatics, clowning and fairy-tale adventure in a funny and playful remix of Hans Christian Andersen’s classic story. Expect extraordinary physical storytelling from award-winning contemporary circus company Upswing.
Based on the bestselling story, The Lion Inside (ages 3+) is a brand-new adaptation playing at the Unicorn from 23rd July to 4th August. It’s all about confidence, self-esteem, and a shy little mouse who sets out on a journey to find his roar. You’ll discover that even the biggest, bossiest people are scared sometimes... and even the smallest creatures can have the heart of a lion!
Can’t get to the theatre? Or need a quick rainy day activity? Watch the theatrical reading of Roald Dahl’s The Magic Finger (ages 6+) on the Unicorn’s website for free – starring Corrina Brown (from Netflix drama Heartstopper).
