An ordinary café, on one extraordinary day! Henry Moon is a huge spoonful of fun, a mug-full of fantasy and a platter of creativity!
about the production
Bills keep piling so high, Flo doesn't know what to do! All seems doomed for Flo until one cold windy day a strange old chap called Henry Moon blows through the doors of the café. Wearing a coat of many pockets, some rose tinted glasses and bursting with imaginative stories, this strange little man could be the answer to her problems. The always imaginative and award-winning Rhubarb Theatre present Henry Moon and the Greasy Spoon! It's perfect for families that enjoy theatrical play, puppetry, mask, dance, song and lots of laughter.

The show can bring the full theatrical experience into your venue – we just need a hall space and a power socket - available NOW for booking!
The show is suitable for children from 5yrs upwards and their families.
Their high energy, bouncy performance enticed and excited kids and adults.
What an amazing performance by very talented people, your imagination and invention is second to none.
Fantastic, my child was totally engrossed from beginning to end. Thank you.
All our shows and workshops are totally inclusive - no-one is excluded.
Our shows are very visual, musical and colourful with little in the way of language and therefore loved by SEN schools and can also be enjoyed by families with English as their second language.
There is an after-show chat with the actors, so children can ask how & why questions.
The show can be accompanied by a linking workshop/storytelling/role play.
As the show is about creating stories, our workshops will be along those lines, but we can be bespoke.
£495 per show + travel & VAT
