DNA
are proud to present ‘Terry Jones’ Fairy Tales’
with an exciting mix of puppets, storytelling, percussion and DNA’s
trademark blend of live performance and audience participation.
Thurtinkle is a wise old gnome with a big nose, a big heart and
a big appetite for stories! He has traveled all over the world and
through time and space sniffing out the best tales of them all.
Find out why Thurtinkle loves his beautiful big nose in ‘The
Big Noses’, try to help Katy make her mind up in ‘Katy
Make-Sure’, laugh at the crazy antics of the two greedy robbers
in ‘The Glass Cupboard’ and find out what happens when
you’re never satisfied in ‘The Corn Dolly’.
With his witty low-key style, author Terry Jones addresses important
themes for children such as inclusion and diversity, environmentalism,
self-esteem and consumerism.
"A show that was enjoyed by both the children and the
parents in the audience, it is heartening to think this kind of
theatre is still being created and taken around the country."
