"This is a joyous show about finding yourself and the things that you love, retaining the wonder of life as you move from childhood into the adult world, and remembering what it felt like to be a child. An exhilarating family show, and a mischievous life lesson for all ages". The Guardian
"There's kinetic dancing, gloriously nonsensical songs and pin-sharp musicianship: a glowing eruption of freewheeling fun". Time Out
Bursting with energy and movement, objects come to life and characters discover their mojo, igniting stunning visual transformations from the award-winning team of Arthur Pita and Sue Buckmaster.
Exploring the magic and mayhem of growing up, dancers, puppeteers and musicians including world jazz percussionist Adriano Adewale and folk/blues/jazz singer, trumpeter and guitarist Leo Altarelli will enliven this extraordinary world.
