Mister Magnolia has many things, such as an old trumpet that goes rooty-toot, some very fat owls learning to hoot, a big purple dinosaur who's a magnificent brute, two sisters who play the flute, and even a swimming pool. But he still only has one boot! Join Mister Magnolia on his wacky adventures, filled with Folksy Theatre's bold characters, live music, puppetry and audience interaction, it's a day out not to be missed! Based on the book by the wonderful Quentin Blake.
What will the poor cobbler and his wife do? They have no money and just enough leather to make one last pair of shoes. Then, good fortune suddenly smiles upon them. While the shoemaker sleeps, someone fashions the most perfect pair of shoes imaginable--and a delighted customer pays twice the asking price! Who could have done such marvellous work? And will the magic continue? A captivating story about generosity, kindness (and a couple of mischievous elves!) Filled with Folksy’s touch of wonderful live music, puppetry, multimedia and downright silliness! This wonderful musical will have the whole family entertained.
"A thoroughly authentic production, impressive and absorbing"
