Small stories + Tall stories

I love this. It's well cute.

The National Theatre has pitched up an inflatable auditorium in which to host five days of storytelling.

The morning 'Small Stories' are for kids aged 5-7 (Wed-Sat 10.30am, 11.30am, & 12.30pm; Sun 11am, 12noon & 1pm); afternoon 'Tall Stories' for 8-11s (Wed-Sat 2.30pm, 3.30pm & 4.30pm) and evenings for adults.

..we agreed in the office that these should be called 'Giant stories'

There are also further family sessions:

Wed: 'Brain Wave', puppetry with the Whalley Range All Stars (1pm & 6.30pm); 'Les Moutons', a sheep story with Corpus (2pm & 5pm).
Thur: A ceilidh for all ages with Cheap Jack (1pm); 'Les Moutons (2pm & 4pm).
Fri: The legend of 'King Arthur' with Les Grooms (1pm & 4.30pm); Explore a giant hive with Pif-Paf in 'Honey' (2-6pm); Allotment fun with Plunge Bloom in 'Vegetable Nannies' (2pm, 4.30pm & 6pm).
Sat: 'Honey (12noon-1pm & 2-5pm); Salsa moves with Coco Xpress and Garcia (1pm).
Sunday wraps up with The Chipolatas and their mix of street theatre and circus (1.30pm).

Now I just need to either be, or have, a kid!
