TICKETS ON SALE NOW – WORLD PREMIERE ANNOUNCEMENT! THE LOST BALLOON
A lonely character.
A big bustling city.
A shiny yellow balloon.
When the balloon slips away, a heartwarming chase begins – leading our Hero through a city teeming with eccentric, loveable characters: the mischievous Golden Oldies, the flamboyant Lollipop Ladies, and the ever-so-delightful Tourists.
Blending world-class mask theatre, puppetry, soul-stirring original music, and visual storytelling, The Lost Balloon transcends language, age, and culture – reminding us that even the smallest acts of kindness can create ripples of connection.
Suitable for Ages 3 to 102 — this is a show for the young and the young at heart!
