Buxton Opera House

Hare and Tortoise was an interactive, accessible, musical play that travelled through the seasons, providing a welcome reminder that life should be cherished and taken at a pace instead of being rushed through. Over one thousand audience members joined us at the Pavilion Arts Centre for public performances. We also presented thirteen additional performances as part of a schools tour, meeting another one thousand audience members across the High Peak, Derbyshire Dales and Cheshire.

“A fabulous and meaningful experience for our young pupils… a great introduction to theatre and accessible to all.” – Teacher from participating school
