🐻 Widdershins Presents: Snow White Rose Red Bear Brown - The Green, Houghton Regis (ages 4+)
Saturday 05 July 2025
Time: 11:00
🎭 Widdershins Presents: Snow White Rose Red Bear Brown at Houghton Regis Memorial Hall, 11am (50 minutes) on Saturday 5th July 2025!
AGE: Suitable for ages 4+
🌹 EVENT DETAILS
Snow White and Rose Red – sisters, twins, best friends – have lived in the forest since they were Babes in the Wood. Brought up by their hardworking Mother to be kind, caring and forest fluent… if sometimes a little over enthusiastic in their deeds!
When their quiet life is interrupted by a friendly bear a new chapter begins. But why has the bear chosen them as playfellows? Why is there sadness in his eyes? And who on earth is that rude little man with a ridiculously long beard that they keep bumping in to?
All questions will be untangled in this new show from the Woods of Widdershins, using puppets, storytelling, original music and a fantastical fairytale forest.
🎟 FREE - TICKETS NEEDED
You can book your free tickets via the event link.
