A Little Angel Theatre and Polka Theatre co-production THE PAPER DOLLS runs at Little Angel Theatre, 18 April - 28 June 2015. Press show: 25 April 2015 at 3:30 p.m. From the award-winning author of The Gruffalo.
When a little girl cuts out a string of paper dolls she takes them by the hand and together they go on a fantastical adventure whirling through their home and garden. Ticky, Tacky, Jackie the Backie, Jim with two noses and Jo with the bow fly through time and tear across worlds of fun and excitement. They face the jurassic clutches of a toy dinosaur and the snapping jaws of the oven-glove crocodile, and then a very real boy with very real scissors threatens to snip their adventure short...
Adapted from the acclaimed book by Children's Laureate Julia Donaldson, this magical tale is brought to life through puppetry and music.

The Paper Dolls is suitable for age 3 - 7.
