Little Angel Theatre presents
SLEEPYHEAD
- 13 December 2018 - 31 December 2018
- The Studio
Little Angel Theatre presents the perfect Christmas show for ages 2 - 5.
It’s been a long day for Dad and he can hardly keep his eyes open. All he wants is for Baby to go to sleep so he can catch up on a little shut-eye too.
Dad’s usually got some tricks up his sleeve to help send Baby off to the Land of Nod. But tonight, Baby has other ideas…
As soon as Dad’s out of the way, Baby gets his hands on the magic top hat, and when his friend Rabbit shows up the fun and games really begin!
Mix in some magic, a pinch of circus and a large dollop of silliness and you have the recipe for a little adventure with a lot of laughs! This is the perfect Christmas show for anyone aged 2–5.
