A Polka Theatre production

★★★★★
"An exceptional show... celebrating imaginative play using everyday found objects." 
Everything Theatre

"A lovely introduction to performance" 
Daily Mumtra

 

What can we build? Where will our imaginations take us?

Follow two very curious builders who are committed to getting the job done, the only problem is, they’ve never built anything before! Join them as they work together exploring textures, objects and materials and transform them into wonderful creations that come to life. A mermaid, a rocket, a mighty elephant… the possibilities are endless!

Come on an interactive building adventure, embracing the magic of discovering things for the first time, where mistakes are a door to something new.
