Heartwarming family puppet theatre telling the the inspiring story of a shepherd who transforms a barren wasteland into a forest.
This multi-sensory adaptation of Jean Giono’s environmental classic tells the story of a shepherd who plants a forest, acorn by acorn. As much a touching tale as it is a hilarious puppet show, The Man Who Planted Trees shows us the difference one man (and his dog!) can make to the world.
“Laughs, heartbreak, war, regeneration, scented breezes, sparkling wit and the best dog puppet ever. Perfect for children and grown-ups. Terrific.”
