Puppet Show: Along Came a Magpie

Forty Minute Puppet Show

Along Came A Magpie supports children to explore feelings and growth with the help of playful and unforgettable characters. Featuring puppetry, plants and lots of pots, this forty minute adventure is designed to delight ages 2-6 and their grownups.

In the intimate setting of a potting shed, we meet our Gardener. She loves the smell of the flowers, the feel of the earth and watching her plants bloom. But along came a magpie who turned her potting shed upside down! Making friends is lots of fun, but can sometimes be tricky. Join our gardener and magpie on this playful and heart warming journey as they navigate the intricacies of friendship.

“A heartwarming story about friendship, compromise and the joy of sharing a cup of tea!”
