Edward is a bit of an oddball. He is always watching the horizon, always waiting for something, always turning his back on people 

Then one day “the Jumblies” arrive, and his life is turned upside down…then shaken about a bit… and then a bit more!!

​

With a huge and colourful cast of abstract and figurative puppets, this absurd take on Lear’s nonsense classic, pushes puppetry into new areas. It explores that difficult age between being a child and becoming an adult, with empathy and humour and great imaginative leaps and bounds.

​

This highly anticipated production, comes from the designer/director and composer team behind Little Angel Theatre’s “Alice in Wonderland” and “The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me”. Told with great gusto, visual flair, and a beautifully evocative soundtrack, this is puppet theatre at its most exuberant .

 

Having opened to rave reviews in London this Autumn, The Guardian described it as "a learning experience for the children and an exposure to so many new forms of art, yet it never feels like hard work" - check out the full review here!
