Tales From The Trees

Let Squashbox Theatre be your guide to the tremendous world of trees, from branch to leaf and twig to root, from berry to blossom and bark to fruit!

Meet Craig, the friendly Forest Ranger and resident tree expert. It’s his job to make sure the woods are a peaceful and happy place, but he’s having a tough time of it today! A cheeky squirrel has stolen his Chocolate Covered Crunchy Snack Bar™, his niece ‘Little Red’ has wandered off the path on her way to Granny’s house, the mysterious old Wizard of the Woods is playing tricks again, and there are even rumours of a Big Bad Wolf in the forest!   

Will Craig save the day? Come and find out, and along the way learn all about trees, discover the wonder of photosynthesis, meet some friendly forest creatures and encounter crazy characters from folklore and fairy tales!

‘Tales from the Trees’ is a terrific tangle of puppetry, storytelling, live music and comedy, with a theme that embraces natural history, folklore and ecology. Listen - the trees are talking…!

‘Tales from the Trees’ is suitable for children 4 years + and their families

“An absolute celebration of all that is good about theatre for children.”

Petra Schofield, Whatsonstage.com

Frank Ruhrmund, ‘The Cornishman’

“An innate understanding and joy in storytelling with fantastic comic and musical skill.”

Mike Shepherd, Founder and Artistic Director, Kneehigh Theatre
