HEREFORDSHIRE-based theatre company Open Sky has created an engaging children’s show, The Mighty Prince and Other Fabulous Tales, drawing on fables told two thousand years ago by the Buddha.
The two performers in Open Sky bring five of these stories to life using a happy mix of rhyme, movement, live music, song and puppetry to conjure up a host of bugs, birds, animals and magical creatures.
Monkey tries to wind up Buffalo. Pigeon saves Ant from disaster. Tortoise’s big mouth leads to a smelly fate. Little Hare scares Deer, Ox, Tiger and Elephant until Lion steps in. And the Prince is indeed mighty but is he mightier than the Giant?
The stories offer simple morals for young hearts and minds whilst avoiding being preachy - and they’re funny too! An enchanting family show for ages 3+
Open Sky will be at Kingsland Coronation Hall on Sunday at 2pm. To book call 01568 709579/ 07905 589830 or visit artsalive.co.uk
