Every night, in the hours between supper and bedtime, the Tear Thief soundlessly steals the tears of every child who cries. But what does she do with them all?
Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy’s book The Tear Thief is magically brought to life in this beautiful adaptation, with stunning puppetry from Little Angel Theatre, and live music.
Simply enchanting.
