If you would like to find out more about the Suitcase Stories we have on offer… read on!
Which story will we find in the suitcase today? It’s Jack and the Beanstalk! Once upon a time…. a storyteller arrived, bringing with them a suitcase full of wonder. As they begin to unpack, a story comes to life, with music, puppets and lots of laughter and fun.
Jack is forced to swap Daisy the cow for some magic beans. But how can a beanstalk come out of a suitcase? Let alone a giant?
To accompany the show we have created a pack of creative ideas and activities to extend your experience.

We want to make sure everyone can enjoy our performances. Our Visual Story helps explain what will happen at the show so you can relax and enjoy the experience.

Jack and the Beanstalk has been made possible thanks to New Forest District Council’s allocation of the Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF), from central government, with designated funds for improving the local cultural offer.
Little Red Riding Hood sets out on a journey across the deep dark forest… meeting some rather curious characters along the way! A story of adventure, mistaken identity, and how you should never judge a book just by its cover.
The Activity Pack and Visual Story for Little Red Riding Hood will be available from Autumn 2025.
Little Red Riding Hood has been made possible thanks to funding from Arts Council England.
