About
Join Chickenshed’s beloved Tales characters for a brand-new collaboration with the British Library! This lively, interactive performance draws inspiration from the oldest children’s stories tucked deep within the shelves – and adds a sprinkle of Chickenshed magic.
Expect familiar faces like Funky Monkey and Blurgh on a journey of discovery that’s educational, mysterious and full of joy. Whether it’s their curious storytelling or the chance to join in the fun, this is a perfect summer treat for little ones and their grown-ups alike.
Recommended for ages 0–6.
