Raven

Overview
Originally co-produced by Alphabetti
Danielle Slade, Stan Hodgson, and Susan Mulholland
Meet Raven Varmint. She is always on the move, roaring, exploring and getting twigs stuck in her hair.
Her mother tries to keep her still, safe and hidden – but Raven has never known why.
On the eve of her 10th birthday, Raven discovers a powerful secret about herself – she was born with a wild heart. She decides to leave safety she has always known, but will her wild heart be accepted in the ‘neat and perfect’ town of Honeyville…?
Join Raven on a journey of bravery and discovery as she begins to understand her feelings and breaks out of the shadows into the beauty and freedom of her wild-hearted self.
A beautiful and mischievous show for 5-11 year olds and their adults, filled with uplifting live music, puppetry, and a tremendously cheeky talking gargoyle.
Wild hearts encouraged.
