Bedtime and Badtime Stories

 

There was a little girl, who had a little curl, right in the middle of her forehead.

When she was good she was very very good. When she was bad she was horrid!

 

 

 

 

Come and see the world famous,

Senora Estrellá Circus of Trepidation

Fantastic acts from all six corners of the world.

 

Bedtime and Badtime Stories is a riotous romp through classic Victorian Cautionary Tales. Given a Cornish twist and set in a fantasy world. We see some of the most hideous children that have ever lived, and what happens to them for lieing, cheating, behaving badly and generally getting up to no good.

See The Ballad of Lew Polperro, The Gnawing of Kynance Sennen, Ode to Trispen and Ermea and the Woeful Demise of Polzeath Tremaine.

Follow Alice through the curtains, will she heed the warnings? or is it too late?

Heed the warnings, or pay the price.

We don't promise this show to be particularly nice.

But above all, we hope, some might be taught,

That being naughty will only end in you being sought,

By dangerous foes, and you may be tired,

But by that time, be warned, you may well have expired.

'Outstanding - Amazing performance.'
 
'All the feedback from the children was positive – no-one had any negative things to say at all.  The children were spellbound all the way through from Year Six down to the very youngest in Year 0.  You really did have them eating out of your hands.  What an achievement!'

‘We loved it, can’t wait to see it again’

‘I laughed, so much, out loud – even though I knew it was naughty and I shouldn’t’

‘Amazing and fantastic’

‘I’ve never seen anything like it in my life – I’ll never bite my nails again’

‘I’ll be singing the tunes for weeks!’
