Following a fantastic run at the Glasgow Green Live Zone Festival 2014 for the Commonwealth Games in July, North Edinburgh Arts’ resident Theatre Company, Licketyspit are bringing their production of Hare & Tortoise to NEA this Christmas!
Adapted from Aesop’s classic fable, Licketyspit’s Hare & Tortoise is a hilarious, highly energetic show. Join the spectators for this riotous event. Put on your supporters’ hats to shout, “Hare will be there! Yeah Yeah Yeah!” or “Go Tortoise go! Don’t be slow!” Bake the race cake with the Bun Brothers, survive a night in the spooky wood with a ukulele… This show is a delightful interactive experience for everyone aged 3-103!
Licketyspit’s Hare & Tortoise is suitable for all children aged 3 years and up, together with their friends and families – including children with additional needs and English as an additional language.
