Where do the Noses Grow?

Dates 8th March 2025 – 10.30am, 12.00pm, 1.30pm, 3.00pm
Ages 2+ | Running Time 30 Mins | Get Tickets?

This is a SPECIAL EVENT with FREE TICKETS and other activities for families seeking sanctuary across Cheshire West and Chester. To book tickets and for more details email: Natasha@TheatrePorto.org. Natasha will also be there on the day to welcome you, engage the children and help with anything else you might need.

Suitable for ages 2-102! A small world fantastical piece with play and puppetry…

One night Lucy cannot sleep.

She hears a strange sound bouncing around her bed! What is it?

She awakes and discovers a strange crumbled bit of brown paper, paper that seems to be alive… what can it be? It wants her to follow it…

And so begins a fantastical journey full of strange encounters and play.

She sets off to reach the island of noses where the strange nose rose grows.

So… Where do the Noses grow? Come and join Lucy and see for yourself!
