PUFFLING PERCY
A new children’s show for 4-11 year olds.
Percy is a young puffin who is too afraid to fly. He’d rather keep to his burrow, thank you very much. When his parents migrate south for the winter, Percy finds he is all alone and in grave danger!
Along comes a fearless field-mouse called Shrimp and the two of them set off on an unexpected adventure: can they survive the perils on the journey ahead, and will Percy ever find his way back to his flock…?
Featuring live music and puppetry, Puffling Percy is an uplifting tale about overcoming fear and finding true friendship.
‘I went to see Puffling Percy in Sheringham today, with my 4 and 9 year old boys. The show was exquisite.’ Sarah Elder
A co-production with Norwich Puppet Theatre and fully funded by the Arts Council.
