| AESOP’S
FABLES by PRESTO PUPPET THEATRE
Thursday 7 August 2pm
£4.50/£15 family (4)
This event will take place in the Hall
Another sparkling production from Britain’s leading touring
puppet masters. In a make-believe land, where humans are clowns
and animals tell stories, Presto Puppet Theatre weave the fantasy
inspired by the well loved Greek slave Aesop.
The scene is set in a beautiful woodland glade where the animals
of the forest gather together to amuse each other. Rather than use
long complicated tales, the animals create a modern day revue with
the emphasis on humour rather than deep seated morals.
Aesop’s old favourites are given a modern twist – including
the Vain Jackdaw hoping to be named ‘Miss Glamour Bird’
in the Feather World Contest and the Wicked Wolf striving for a
tender portion of Welsh Lamb – with hilarious results.
