Tom Thumb

Long ago when all the world was wood the most fearsome foe was the one that breathed fire.

The makers of Chicken Licken and Terry Jones Fairy Tales bring the story of Tom Thumb to life in an exciting adventure for 4 - 9 year old children and their families.

The very first folk story ever printed in English in 1621 mixes a legend set in the times of King Arthur with a Shakespearean take on Celtic folklore. This epic tale of the smallest hero in the world is told with superb puppetry, music and fantastic design.

This tale is always told in times of great change, when we know the world our small ones will live in is going to be a very different one than the one we know.

Celebrating 21 years of making theatre for families DNA Puppetry and Visual Theatre’s previous productions Baba Yaga Boney Legs and Puss in Boots astounded family audiences in theatres, outdoor events and festivals.
