Developed by David Alcock, Irene Hardy and Knut Østrådal
Lighting by Alex Killick
On a bitterly cold evening a little matchstick girl is out on the streets alone, unable to sell her matches. For warmth she lights them one-by-one and through their flames she sees a succession of visions…a sparkling spinning Christmas tree…a ballet dancing chicken…a singing picture frame. In a unique combination of puppetry, mask and music The Little Matchstick Girl finally finds the love and happiness she needs.
This magical production is brought to you by an emerging talent of British puppet animation who combines song, humour and dramatic visual storytelling in a compelling adaptation of this classic Hans Christian Andersen tale.
A family show suitable for children over the age of 6.
