If you go down to the woods …

… on Friday 10th April, look who you may meet, at Westlands entertainment centre at Yeovil. Last Baguette will give two performances at 10am and 11.30, of A Woodland Wonder, a play-along theatre adventure.

Join Ratty as she learns about the environment and plant your very own seeds! There’ll be silliness, play-acting, games and music in this play-along theatre adventure.

Expect to play, move, watch and laugh. Ratty has a lot of ideas but sometimes things don’t go according to plan….can you help her by playing along and working together?

This is a fun and gentle introduction to theatre with play-along storytelling, original music, puppetry, theatre games and lots of imaginative play.
