Mrs Armitage on Wheels
Tuesday 29th July, 11:30am and 2pm
Don’t miss The Horton’s first ever outdoor performance!
If you could change anything on your bicycle, what would it be? A comfy new saddle? An ice cream maker? Rocket boosters?!
When Mrs Armitage goes out for a ride with her trusty dog Breakspear, she decides her bicycle needs improvement. With a new horn, a picnic hamper…and a sail, will Mrs Armitage be able to keep her bicycle in one piece or will her crazy contraption prove too much to handle?
Adapted from Quentin Blake’s classic tale, Mrs Armitage on Wheels, Scoot Theatre present a 40-minute interactive, energetic show, celebrating the joy of getting outdoors.
