'The Velveteen Rabbit' at The Plough Arts Centre Wed 4 - Sat 7 Dec 2019

Alice knows what she’s going to get for Christmas this year (and EVERY year) because it’s always, always, always the same! Socks from Granny, hankies from Uncle Graham, fluffy pyjamas from the Jones cousins and bath smellies from Aunt Betty. This year, to make matters worse, a parcel has arrived from a long lost relative and inside is a ratty old rabbit toy. Join Alice and the Velveteen Rabbit on a heart warming adventure as they explore what it means to love and be loved.

A magical portrayal of growing up, moving on and not letting go by Quirk theatre, full of heart hilarity and a sprinkling of the miraculous.

‘Quirk Theatre know perfectly how to create that magical blend of unmissable fun, laughter and audience participation’
