Booster Cushion Theatre: Old McDonald and the Three Pigs Plus…
Tickets £7 Adult, £6 Child, £22 Family 12.30pm, Start 1pm. Ideal for 4 to 8 year old's and their families. Booster Cushion Theatre's ‘Old McDonald and the Three Pigs Plus…’ weaves the well known story of the Three Pigs with the rhyme Old McDonald Had A Farm. Featuring a 5m wide Big Book with 2m pop ups, bright colourful pages and lots of silly animal props. The Three Pigs are fed up with singing “Eee aye eee aye oh!” every day and bravely decide to move away from Old McDonald’s farm.

Can you help save the day and stop the wolf blowing all the pigs hard work away? A colourful and fun interactive production, full of props, pop ups and audience participation! The children help identify farm produce, sing and take part as the animals on the farm.
