Pirate Princess

For fans of circus, princesses, puppets, laughing, pirates and adventure!
Poor shipwrecked Princess Poppy finds herself lost at sea in a most cumbersome ball gown. If only she could access a higher vantage point to see which way to swim!
Try as she might her frills and layers thwart her attempt to climb the mast to get a better view? Inspired by inventive women of the past, she niftily transforms her outfit into a practical and fabulous solution.
The show encourages us all to reuse, repurpose and recycle as Poppy reinvents her outfit and her mindset to overcome her predicament. With a strong feminist message, the show uses slapstick comedy, puppets and circus skills to tell a highly visual story of overcoming adversity.
Expect wayward crabs, slippery fish, coconut telephones and a whole lot of ?yaaaarrrgh!?
This show is suitable for all ages and aimed specifically at 5 to 11 year olds.
