Scratchworks Theatre Company:
Welcome to… THE MUSHROOM SHOW!
Augustine Fogwoode might be the world's MOST enthusiastic mushroom enthusiast! She is on a quest to make sure everyone knows about the brilliance of fungi: their scientific superpowers and amazing abilities. But it's just her and her puppet friend Goldie. She might just need a few more fun-guys to make it happen.
Join the party and discover how fungi grow, connect and help the natural world, including us humans. Packed full of interactive games, playful music and lots of laughs for all the family, The Mushroom Show is one person's mission to build a community… and maybe it'll become your mission too?
Award-winning Scratchworks Theatre Company brings together science, music and participatory activities for whole families to experience together.
"The show made us feel thirsty for knowledge. We went straight to the library to find a book on mushrooms to learn more!" Audience Review
"Amazing for adults and children alike – made me laugh a lot" Audience Review
