Performances - Saturday 5 April - Sunday 11 May
Duration - Approx. 1 hour
Age Recommendation - 3-7  years

A Polka Theatre, Hiccup Theatre and Derby Theatre co-production

The sky is falling and this little chicken is very worried!

Join our courageous chicken who needs to let everyone know there is a problem! Acorns are raining from the sky and an umbrella just isn’t strong enough! Chicken Licken is joined by her brave group of friends Henney Penney, Ducky Lucky, Goosey Loosey and Turkey Lurkey. What will Foxy Loxy have to say about it all!?

Live music, songs, puppetry and fun combine to tell this classic tale from the same team that brought you ‘Three Billy Goats Gruff’ and ‘The Emperor’s New Clothes’.

All performances include integrated BSL, creative captions and integrated audio description. For best view of the BSL and captions we recommend sitting Row E and above. 

Suitable for audiences age 3+, and their families and friends.
