A heart-warming, entertaining family show that tells the story of a puppy's search for friendship in the wilderness of the Alps.
about the production
Fun-loving puppy Oskar runs all the way down a snowy mountain to find a friendly animal to play with. But where are all the animals? And why must Oskar wait until spring to play his favourite game again? Oskar’s Amazing Adventure is a heart-warming, entertaining family show that that uses a rich mix of storytelling, physical comedy, puppetry, music & song to tell the tale of a puppy’s search for friendship in the wilderness of the Alps. After the show, the children can meet the performer and play with the animal characters.
about the artist
Fidera Fideri is an artist-led Anglo-Swiss children's theatre company based in Brighton. We are dedicated to creating new, original plays that offer engaging and entertaining shared experiences for kids and their grown-ups. When we create a new play, we make sure it will work just as well in a village hall as in a large theatre. Currently we have three plays in repertory: Oskar’s Amazing Adventure, Ugg ’n’ Ogg and the World's First Dogg, and Will Tell and the Big Bad Baron and will be announcing a new play in autumn 2024.

We can perform the show indoors ot outdoors. On a state or the floor. IIn theatres we use what tech / tech support is available. The show is performed end on or on a thrust stage if available. For rural touring venues we can travel with our own lights and sound but can do the show without these.
Oskar’s Amazing Adventure is aimed at children between 2 and 8, but there is plenty for the whole family to enjoy and we aim to offer a positive, shared experience for adults and children alike.
“The energy and enthusiasm of the performer was staggering! She played many different parts with great results. The set was simple but effective with changing seasons and characters. The songs were catchy and fun. My two children (aged 3 and 5) really enjoyed it.”
“Outstanding. This was my own preschooler's first ever live show and I am so massively grateful to Theatre Fideri Fidera for making it such a positive and memorable experience.”
"Thank you for bringing the production, and the book, to Wigtown and Dumfries. Dumfries was a particularly high point for us as many of the families who attended have never been to the theatre before. They come from a very deprived area of the town and it was a big step for them but they had an amazing time and are raring to come back to our children's festival next spring. Thank you for ensuring they had such a brilliant and positive experience.”
We welcome audiences with disabilities and our shows are suitable for relaxed performances.
We have an optional 40 minute drama workshop with creative activities and games inspired by the theme of hibernation and the animal characters in the play, which can be booked for after the show.
£600 for one show. (£800 for 2 shows on the same day. Optional workshop £100
