Polka Theatre presents

Princess and the Pea

* 21 November - 22 February
* 2 - 5
* 40 minutes no interval

Once upon a stormy night, while the wind and the rain were howling outside, the Royals were all tucked up warm in bed. Suddenly, there came a knock at the door and a very wet, very untidy girl was brought inside...



Join us for this playful and comic story of a clever queen, a girl who is not as she first appears a tower of mattresses and, of course, a tiny pea.



This witty and inventive adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's classic bedtime tale is played out among sheets and blankets with puppetry, toys and dreamlike projections. Princess and the Pea is a perfect seasonal treat for ages 2-5 and is directed by Joy Haynes, co-director of Banyan Theatre who recently brought the charming Cinderella Ashputtel and The Steadfast Tin Soldier to Polka.
