Fables At The Kitchen Table

Storyteller Soph has travelled all over the world collecting exciting stories.
But, lately, she’s been spending a lot of time at home. Luckily she’s discovered a fantastic book of fables to help her pass the time.

From Aesop the friendly Lion, Harriet the boastful Hare and Tim the chilled-out Tortoise, join Soph on an imaginative adventure from the kitchen table, as she brings some of Aesop’s best-loved animal characters to life. 

With beautiful songs, creative puppetry and a little bit of theatre magic, this live family show features everything except the kitchen sink!

Supported by Arts Council England and Big Imaginations. Filmed live at Manchester Central Library.

Created in partnership with Manchester Libraries, Tameside Libraries, Wirral Libraries and Spot On Lancashire/Cheshire Rural Touring Arts, this production toured digitally during March and April 2021, with live dates throughout August 2021.
