The Treetop Circus

About

Roll up! Roll up! Roll up! Count Cuckoos Treetop Circus is coming to a woodland near you! Watch in wonder at the nimble fingered, nut-cracking escapades of Little Red the Juggler. Prepare to be astounded by the high energy hijinks of Grey-Trix the Magician. Hold your breath in disbelief at the gravity-defying aerial antics of Dartmoor's own marvellous mustelid The Flying Pine Marten...

Set in ancient woodlands, The Treetop Circus is a strange, silly, mad and magical puppet show for families, inspired by the Two Moors Pine Marten project, a conservation project that has reintroduced once native pine martens back to Dartmoor and Exmoor. Stay for a craft workshop and learn how to make your very own dancing pine marten puppet out of paper and card!

Who is the show for? Perfect for all children aged 5 - 11 and their grown-ups (all children must be accompanied by an adult). Children will be seated on the floor so feel free to bring a cushion to sit on. This is a relaxed performance: audience members with neurodivergent needs are welcome!This page [https://discover.librariesunlimited.org.uk/-/tiverton-library\#/] includes more information about the library including a virtual tour.

This performance lasts for approx 35mins and is followed by a craft workshop which lasts approx 1 hour.

Tickets are 3 per person for library members or 5 per person for non-library members. Please book a ticket for each child and each adult attending. There is a limit of 2 adults per child. We want this event to be accessible to everyone, so a limited number of free tickets are available for anyone who may find the ticket cost a barrier.
