Hull Truck Theatre presents
Rapunzel
- Written and Directed by Tom Saunders
Fairytales, mysteries, short stories, poems, cookbooks, puzzle books, you name it, and Rapunzel has read it!!
A complete book worm and lover of Christmas time, Rapunzel can get lost in a make-believe world for days on end... stopping only for snacks, to decorate her tree and to brush her long unruly hair!
But this year, Rapunzel finds herself in a bit of a festive funk. As much as she longs to step outside her front door and find an adventure of her own, there is something holding her back....
After years of keeping herself locked away, a sudden and unexpected opportunity presents itself, and Rapunzel finds that she may have bitten off more than she can chew as she embarks on a new friendship.
Can her new friend persuade Rapunzel to face her fears? Or will she be stuck inside to welcome in yet another New Year?
Celebrating and exploring themes of friendship, bravery and adventure, this heartwarming festive production will have young audiences and their families beaming from ear to ear long after the applause.
From the team that brought you Princess and the Frog, Jack, Mum and The Beanstalk and Tortoise & The Hare.
