Age recommendation 4–10 

This show has a storyline that can be followed and enjoyed by 4 and 5 year olds, but also uses more complex ideas, humour, dialogue and song lyrics that older children and adults will get more out of. There is nothing really scary in this show but it does use dramatic music and lighting, for example the theatre will go dark during the performance which some children might find unsettling and the characters face some perils during the performance.

All ages are welcome at our shows and age ranges can only be a rough guide, but please bear in mind that The Three Little Wolves was not specially designed for under-fours. A show aimed at two-year olds would have some differences – those shows are carefully made to hold their attention for the duration, and not to be unsettling for them. If you do bring under fours to the show, we ask that you take them out if they become upset or distracted so as not to effect the enjoyment of the rest of the audience.

Seating

We allocate seating in advance to ensure that everyone has a good view. We always make sure that no child is sat behind an adult and that people who have booked with babies can get out easily if they need to. We seat people in the order in which they have booked, so those who book far in advance will be seated nearer to the front. When you arrive, one of the team will show you to your allocated seats.

Accessibility

We aim to make the Puppet Barge as accessible as possible. For information about accessible performances, carer tickets and also the Puppet Barge itself, please visit our Accessibility page
