Join Soap Soup Theatre on their most riotous, colourful adventure of all - where a bedroom becomes a forest, a school turns into a solar system and the drawings in your bag have a life of their own! A story about the magic of creativity. Devised by one of Bristol’s leading theatre makers for family audiences, and based on a brand new book by Artistic Director Tomasin Cuthbert. Soap Soup Theatre combines high quality children’s theatre with the magic of projection mapping, bringing the vibrant illustrations from the book to life.
