WOOD OWL AND THE BOX OF WONDERS

A beautiful new Hoglets play for pre- and primary-aged children.

“The love we show can make us grow.”

A lonely little owl wants nothing more than to fly into the night and join his friends. But how can he, when he is made from wood?

The arrival of another lonely soul changes his life as he strives to help.

Join Hoglets Theatre on a magical journey of singing owls, fantasy worlds, friendship and love.

Featuring beautiful handmade puppets, original songs and music and an age-old message that the love we show to others comes back to us in time.
