Can you fit the entire world into a one hour show? Well, if anybody can, Squashbox Theatre can!
Join intrepid explorer Craig on a breathless race across the planet, as he attempts to decipher the clues left by his globe-trotting Great Aunt Gladys - clues that could finally explain her mysterious disappearance!
In ‘Wonderful World’ we will be crossing continents, encountering strange and wonderful creatures, meeting crazy characters, and learning incredible facts about geography, climate, ecosystems, countries, language and navigation along the way.
Discover the things that connect us - and make us all a part of this 'Wonderful World'!
‘Wonderful World’ is a brand-new show from Squashbox Theatre, incorporating ingenious puppetry, fantastic facts, silly slapstick, crazy comedy and marvellous live music – all presented in that unique Squashbox style!

Unmissable fun for children aged 4+ and their grownups!
What to expect and what to bring:
Car parking charges still apply in the Cardinham Woods. The event will be no longer than two hours, so it will be £4. More information here: https://www.forestryengland.uk/cardinham-woods. You can pay for the parking at the machines or using the RingGo App. The location is 31017.
The performance space is in the garden, behind the Woods Café - What3Words - ///unloaded.waltz.fully
The show will begin at 4pm, so give yourself time to get there and set up beforehand.
The Woods Cafe closes at 4pm, so either come early for some of their delicious food and drinks, or bring your own refreshments. You're welcome to bring a picnic.
The toilets are in the main car park, which is a 3-minute walk from the performance space.
Please bring your own chairs or blankets. We will have a few benches as a backup, if you don't have a camping chair.
The sun will be out! The space is surrounded by trees, so you may find a shady spot, but please bring sun hats and wear sun cream – and sometimes the shade can be chilly, so pack a jumper. And sometime it does rain, so pack a rain coat! Umrellas block the view behind you, so they’re not so good, unless you stand at the back.
What happens if it does rain? The show will go on! Unless it torrential thunderstorms, in which case we will cancel the show and let you know via email that morning at the latest.
There can be midges in the air…! They might not be out at this time, but if you have any bug spray, it might be worth packing that. We'll have some citronella incense sticks.
