We’re best known for our high-quality touring theatre productions, created specifically for school environments.
We begin every project with a ‘story’, working with leading Scottish playwrights and writers to create imaginative journeys, which stir curiosity, adventure and discovery.
Previously we’ve developed work for ages 3 – 8 years and 7+ with a commitment to nurturing an appreciation of the performing arts at an early age. We’re passionate about providing children with an opportunity to navigate confidently and creatively with the world around them.
We produce a range of resources to accompany our productions, helping schools make the most of our visit and maintain the legacy of the project.
We’re proud that our stories promise entertainment, engagement and accessibility in every twist, tale and joke that we tell!
