Families are invited to Fenton Town Hall this November for Stories in the Dust – a funny, heartfelt and hopeful eco-fable combining live music, puppetry and clowning.

The show follows two intrepid explorers travelling across a mysterious landscape in a contraption they have built themselves.

Along the way, they sing, play games, and share stories inspired by a collection of precious things they have gathered from a time gone by. They are full of ideas and full of hope - but dangerously low on baked beans.

Audiences are transported to a world where an ancient book guides your way, a drop of rain changes everything, and a mighty lion holds its secrets in an old clay pot. Full of imagination and warmth, Stories in the Dust offers a perfect introduction to live theatre for young audiences.
