About this event

Two sheep think they know everything about sleep. 

They’re experts in the field. 

But tonight they’re wide awake.

Snuggle up and join two sheep on a journey through the joys and frustrations of everything bedtime. A touching, musical adventure filled with sensory play, for 0-3 year olds and their (very tired) grown ups.
