“The lively puppets are absolutely brilliant, beautifully made by Marc Parrett and sensitively manipulated so they capture the distinctive characteristics and movements of the animals. Their delightful, emotionally engaging personalities let the audience connect with and understand the fragility of their life experiences. At times they cause a rollercoaster of emotions, shifting from laugh out loud comedy with slapstick hijinks to deeply moving and personal revelations” - Theatre Everything
“Scarlet Oak Theatre have an infectious sense of fun and have left our audiences smiling with every performance.” - Adam Fuller, Co-Creative Director at Front Room Theatre
