What is Stick Man about?

What starts off as a morning jog becomes quite the misadventure for Stick Man: a dog wants to play fetch with him, a swan builds a nest with him, and things start to heat up with he ends up on a fire! How will Stick Man ever get back to the family tree in time for Christmas?

Packed full of puppetry, songs, live music and funky moves, this award-winning production, is the perfect festive treat.

Who are Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler?

Julia Donaldson is one of the UK's most beloved and respected children’s authors in modern history. Responsible for the much-loved phenomenon, The Gruffalo, as well as the equally iconic Room on the Broom, Stick Man and Zog, Donaldson has well and truly earned her place in people’s hearts (as well as their bookshelves!) Axel Scheffler is an award-winning, internationally acclaimed illustrator, best known for his colourful and creative creatures. A frequent collaborator of Donaldson, Scheffler has added colour and magic to The Gruffalo, The Stick Man and more.
