Grimsby-based arts organisation for children says that booking is now open for A TIGER’S TALE by Rochdale-based company M6.

 

SAT 5 OCTOBER

BIRDHOUSE PRESENTS

FREE CHILDREN’S THEATRE SHOW

GRIMSBY MINSTER

 

M6 Theatre will present this fantastical production by the award winning playwright Mike Kenny, which is based on the extraordinary story of Fenella, the Holmfirth Tiger.

A TIGER'S TALE is a high spirited balancing act of circus, puppetry, live music and song.

From a circus train in South Africa, to a steamboat on the Atlantic Ocean and onward to West Yorkshire, a ramshackle travelling troupe tells us the unbelievable true story of a family of acrobats and their adopted tiger cub.

Join Titch, Ma and Pa on their riotous adventure into a world where ‘all the best stories end with a surprise.’

Inspired by 'Tiger on a String' by Kassie Overend.
