A bright and lively puppet show for young children at the Children's Library.

Flyaway Katie is a gentle and joyful puppet show based on the book by Polly Dunbar.

It is full of colour, movement and surprises, with puppets of different sizes telling the story.

Katie feels grey and lonely, but when she looks at the bright birds on her wall everything begins to change.

The show is 35 minutes long, followed by 15 minutes to meet the puppets. It is designed for children aged 2 to 7 years.

You can look forward to:

  • bright and playful puppets
  • simple storytelling with music by Tom Gray of Gomez
  • meeting the puppets after the show
