Join a fantastical sing-a-long adventure with a baby who takes to the sea, the air, the zoo all in a shoe!
A magical puppet show, Shoe Baby is a former winner of the Brighton Festival’s Best Children’s Show Award.
Adapted from the book by Joyce and Polly Dunbar published by Walker Books, with music by Tom Gray of award-winning band Gomez.

Parents are as transfixed as their children, some of whom are just over a year old. It was not only the most imaginative but the most philosophical piece of theatre I'd seen in ages"
Richard Dyball, The Times
Praise be then for the wonderful Shoe Baby puppet show…The music, by Tom Gray of Gomez, was absolutely fantastic and the sets and puppeteering spot on"
