Join Dr Dolittle and friends for an exciting and interactive one woman show this August, as New Vic Education set off on a tour of Staffordshire’s libraries.
Following on from the show’s appearance at the Festival Of Brilliant this Sunday (13 July: https://outsidearts.org/events/the-festival-of-brilliant/), families are invited to set sail with Doctor Dolittle, Dab Dab, Che Che and their crew of explorers across Staffordshire this summer, on an adventure through new lands as they help animals in need and talk to them too!
Children aged four and above can get involved in imaginative storytelling through playful puppetry, meeting fun characters and exploring the wonders of nature all while learning about kindness and friendship.
The story has been adapted by New Vic’s Head of Education Jill Rezzano, writer of many of the New Vic’s popular Christmas Tale Trail adventures. After a successful tour last year visiting locations including Stoke Library and theEmma Bridgewater Factory, the show is back on the road this summer, ready to bring young imaginations to life.
