theatre, children-and-family
A fun and playful adventure for ages 3+ that uses puppetry and live music to explore the environment and our relationship to it
about the production
Welcome to the world of the Polluto family who throw all their rubbish into the garden and never recycle. One day, their rubbish piles so high that they can no longer leave their house. As the rubbish piles higher and higher, will they ever find their way out? Using puppetry and live music, we invite you for a fun and playful adventure that explores the environment and our relationship to it.

Mr and Mrs Polluto captures the magic of performance and weaves a wonderfully modern story that focuses on community, responsibility and a strong sense of shared belonging.
A wonderful, innovative production for both young and old alike. We really enjoyed our time, and the workshop at the end was an added bonus. Many thanks for a fantastic time!
Amazing energy, props and music!
We welcome relaxed performances, audio-described or sign interpreted performances and touch tours. Please discuss any specific requirements you may have.
The production can come with an optional 45-minute puppet making play session where audience members have the opportunity to create their own puppets of characters in the show before taking them home as a visual reminder.
