Synopsis
★★★★★
“A very fun 55 minutes in another wonderful dimension.”
– The List
★★★★
"a glorious hour of theatre for (the) young..., packed with fun, imagination, and the fierce passion for storytelling...”
– The Scotsman
Masters of immersive theatre for families, the UK’s Punchdrunk Enrichment makes its highly anticipated Asia debut, plunging young audiences into a spellbinding world.
At 314 floors high and with 78 spiral side departments, The Lost Lending Library houses the largest collection of books and stories in the world. Tales of all shapes and sizes are crammed together on its shelves with new adventures bursting into life from their covers.
Inside, a new library apprentice eagerly awaits your arrival. But the library has a habit of playing tricks and things often don’t go as planned. They need your help to learn how to believe in themselves, and to keep collecting new stories.
Come on a highly engaging journey that celebrates the search for knowledge and trying your best.
These shows are open to schools only.
