How to survive in a cartoon universe (family)

You've just been yanked through a wormhole into the wonderfully weird cartoon universe. The sky is technicolour, logic is optional, and the locals? Well, let’s just say they’ve got their own peculiar brand of hospitality. You’re the odd one out - a human in Toon Town - and that might well be a problem… Help!!

Thankfully, you’re not alone. Enter Rachel: your interdimensional field guide, armed with gadgets, a knack for science, and seemingly infinite patience for nonsense.

With her help you’ll explore the cartoon universe, from undersea lagoons, to frozen wastelands, and all the way out to strange deserts where the laws of physics don’t seem to apply…

Together, you’ll uncover what makes the cartoon universe tick - and how not to get flattened, frozen, or flung into orbit while you're there.

As with all our family theatre talks, this event is designed to be enjoyed by adults and children together. All young people under the age of 13 need to be accompanied by a paying adult and those aged 4 and above need a ticket to attend.
