Wood Owl and the Box of Wonders

Join Hoglets Theatre and Ripon Theatre Festival on a magical journey this May half term.

  • Booking essential
  • Admission applies

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? A magical half-term journey of singing owls, fantasy worlds, friendship and love. Featuring beautiful handmade puppets, original music and an age-old message that the love we show to others comes back to us in time.

Join Hoglets Theatre and Ripon Theatre Festival for a 40 minute puppet show, plus optional puppet-making activity.

This event is ticketed. Tickets cost £5 and can be booked through the Ripon Theatre Festival website. Please note that standard admission to Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal still applies.
