Hoglets Theatre presents this magical tale of overcoming fears, adapted from an original story by Gemma Sharp.

What happens when you just can’t sleep? And what’s that singing through the cupboard door?

On his first night in a new house, a young boy called Bear faces his fears, heads through his creepy cupboard door and discovers an incredible adventure on the other side.

Brought to life through larger-than-life characters, puppets, dancing, song and immersive storytelling, The Sleep Pirates is an imagination-firing treat for primary and pre-school children.

Join Hoglets Theatre for a morning of swashbuckling fun At The Mill. In addition to a performance of the fantastically fun packed show The Sleep Pirates there will be a treasure hunt for pirate booty around the beautiful Mill gardens, whilst local musicians perform rousing sea shanties and magical tunes. The morning will be rounded off by a pirate training camp where your little folks will learn to crew a ship, dance a jig, and set sail across the seven seas in search of adventure.

Our Café At The Mill will be open to accompany this event.
