Overview

By Gaelic Theatre (of Norwich)

 

Snug and Grub catch a Bug! is an inventive, funny puppet show about two little characters, Snug and Grub, who pop out from under a rock and see a little bug wriggling through the grass. As they try and catch it, an adventure unfolds in their little organic world as they try to protect it from something hovering in the blue sky  ready to swoop down…  

 

This event is part of the 5th edition of Newcastle Puppetry Festival, which will take place 30th March – 7th April 2024. To find out more about the wider programme (including free events) taking place around the city, visit www.newcastlepuppetryfestival.co.uk
