Sunflowers and Sheds (For ages 5+)

Touring 5 May - 24 June

A heart-warming tale of friendship, family and fun on the allotment.

Frank’s peaceful routine is turned upside down by the arrival of the lively Isabella on the neighbouring plot. With patience and just a sprinkling of understanding, the seeds of friendship grow alongside the potatoes, primroses, memories and dreams.                      

So dig out your wellies and join Frank, Isabella and her friendly chickens on a journey that’s sure to nourish your heart and feed your imagination. 

For ages 5+ and anyone who’s ever made a friend.
