FAMILY FUN! A Necklace of Raindrops + Q&A with the company and Puppet Making Workshop

Stories performed with original live music, spoken word, and a miniature ‘crankie’ theatre with scrolling silhouette scenery. Based on the classic children’s book by Joan Aiken.
Young Laura receives an extraordinary birthday gift – a magical necklace that keeps its owner dry in the heaviest rainstorm! But one day it goes missing – how will she get it back? Join Laura and her animal friends on a wild adventure across oceans and deserts to find out!
Spoken word, live music and magical scrolling illustrations combine to bring this timeless tale alive for a new generation of story listeners. Featuring an enchanting live score with strings, wind and percussion.
One Moment In Time is delighted to have been granted permission by Joan Aiken’s Estate to retell this much-loved tale.
Recommended for ages 4+
Running time 30 mins + an informal Q+A with the company after the show. There will also be a 30 minute Puppet Making workshop run by Front Room as part of the ticket price.
“A heartwarming, magical journey full of kindness and justice. Totally absorbing and delightful.” – Audience member, Beverley Puppet Festival 2018
