“Maybe the tables have turned and it’s fairies who need to believe in humans now”
Something magical is happening. In a street near you.
Gather round as Henderson, Brown and Wallis, a trio of rambunctious travelling players,
tumble out of a van with a tall tale to tell. With music, magic and very (very) bad jokes, let
them transport you to the deep dark woods, where an 800-year-old forgotten
fairy and a brave(ish) child called Freddy try to save spring from the freezing clutches of a naughty ghost.
Hilarious and a tiny bit spooky for scaredy-parents (a lion roars softly more than once), why not join Fairy Poppins, Freddy – and three very silly storytellers – on this magical, meaningful
adventure.
