Little Robin Red Vest
"Captivating! As a mum and a teacher this is the best show we have seen." - Audience Member
One frosty evening, just before Christmas, Little Robin prepares seven cozy vests for the chilly nights ahead. Along the way, he meets cold, shivering animals and generously gives each one of his vests. But by Christmas Eve, Robin finds himself cold and without any vests… until Father Christmas arrives with a special gift.
This brand-new adaptation of Jan Fearnley’s beloved story features original songs, puppetry, and integrated Makaton. Little Robin is an accessible and multisensory treat, perfect for little ones aged 2-6 and their families.
A co-production with Filskit Theatre, the show was originally created with the support of Arts Council England, artsdepot and Wiltshire Creative. You can read a blog about the making of the show here.
This year, Little Robin Red Vest will run at Oxford Playhouse from 2 December 26 - 2 January 27. Click here for details.
