Tiny Clown loves Big Adventures but what will happen when he meets a real live Jabberwock??? Warning this show contains real Jabberwock poo!

It's a daft show for so many ages and the Jabberwock is a really gorgeous (and silly) beastie! Come along!

This was us! Out on the streets of Ripon with our new, somewhat twisted version of Punch and Judy. It's all about Judy now! She's got rid of that old reprobate Mr Punch. Unfortunately his replacement is just as useless (if not more so!) Thanks to everyone at Ripon theatre fest for being so fun and supportive! Lovely to meet you Stories Alive!!

Dear everyone... particularly everyone we know this side of Leeds! It's been quite a year for us. Lots of incredible successes. We are very thankful for that. But all this work has taken us away from our Horsforth home and friends and we want to re-connect.

Marc and I have decided to divert a significant proportion of our energies into building the Grandly Strange Puppet Theatre as a viable entity! We are currently touring our show 'The elves and the Shoemaker' to primary schools and halls around North Leeds.

But this is just a start. Next year we are hoping to make 2 new shows and someday we'd really like to have our own puppet theatre building somewhere near here!... If you don't dream it'll never happen!! Anyway. If you fancy seeing a bonkers show about tiny shivery blue magic people who make shoes in the middle of the night (that's actually a spoiler!) then come along! Or tell your friends. It's suitable for ages 3-7 and much older! Tix are £8 (babes in arms are free) and you can say hello to the elves afterwards! Click below for ticket details...
