Persephone - A Tale of the Seasons (performance for babies)
24 March–1 April 2025
Join Persephone and her animal friends as they guide you and your babies through the changes in nature…
Fly with a spring butterfly, as the plants begin to grow, the birds build their nests and the days get longer – will there be an April shower? Hop through the meadow with a summer rabbit, watching the flowers bloom and feel the heat of the sun. See the leaves change colour and fall to the ground as our autumnal squirrel stores his winter nuts. Hear the robin chirp a merry tune, as it gets colder and the days draw in. Which animals hibernate? And will you be able to catch a snowflake on your tongue?
Aimed at ages 6 to 18 months

People behind the puppets
Over the past 60 years, a huge range of designers have brought their unique puppet designs to life on the Little Angel Theatre stage.
In this new online series, Little Angel’s very own Little Angel puppet will meet and interview several different designers to find out more about their experiences of puppetry design and why they love working in the field.
Bertie
Bertie… is our brand new first-ever digital series!
Bertie is an environmental entertainment and education series or children aged 3 to 8 on LAT’s YouTube Channel. Children will learn about different environmental issues and consider how they can take their own steps to help combat climate change.

Little Angel Theatre is a magical place. They have brought many of my books to life on stage, and they do so creatively whilst remaining faithful to the books. It is wonderful to see so many children enjoying this special THEATRE.
