Hey Diddle Diddle!
by Goblinchildren-and-family, music-and-opera
Goblin return with a hilarious adventure filled with live music and puppetry, for ages 3+.
about the production
When the full moon shines bright there’s magic in the air, and all the animals come out to play. Stay up late with flying cows, jazzy cats and runaway crockery and as we jump and jive to the music in a brilliant new take on the classic nursery rhyme. Ever wondered how a cow jumped over the moon? Or why the dish ran away with the spoon? With original music, brilliant puppetry and lots of laughter, this new show is a wild and musical celebration about the importance of imagination. https://goblintheatre.bandcamp.com/album/hey-diddle-diddle

This is a highly adaptable show, suitable for a variety of spaces. We’ll adapt the show to fit the location. The minimum playing space is 4m x 4m.
The get-in will take 2-3 hours and we require a very simple pre-rig. We tour all our own sound equipment and instruments, and we will require one venue technician to help us set up.
Ages 3+
