Theatre in the Library: How to Catch a Book Witch

Kira loves books... there's nothing better than visiting the library for a new adventure. But when the words start disappearing from the pages and the grown-ups get grumpy, something strange is going on. It might just have something to do with... a Book Witch!

Join Kira and her book-loving sidekick The Worm as they uncover disappearing words, mischievous book monsters, and a plot to turn the library into a car park!

A magical, heart-warming show for ages 4+, celebrating the power of stories, the importance of libraries, and why we should never judge a book — or a person — by its cover.

Expect live music, puppetry, fun storytelling, and plenty of chances to join in. Created with inclusion and accessibility in mind, the show features key word signing and integrated captions.

Brought to you by Cornish-based Coppice Theatre, specialists in entertaining, accessible productions for young audiences.
