Children’s Theatre
Gobland For The Goblins!
★★★☆☆ Playful:
Billed as a fantasy video game for older children and their families, writer-director James Beagon and Aulos Productions’ latest show sees them switch genres yet again. Gobland For The Goblins! is an interactive show with some very pleasing elements.
Molly Whuppie
✭✭✭✭✩ Energetic:
This was a very funny and energetic show that is very suitable for three to ten year olds but older people might like it.
White
★★★★★ Perfect rainbow:
There is a magical sense of discovery to White, the show for two to four year-olds which returns to the Traverse for the run up to Christmas.
Eejits and Hissy Fits – junior review
✭✭✭✭✩
Junior Review by Cora Dibdin
One woman, a small room, three stories.
The Bookbinder
✭✭✭✭✭ Beautiful craftsmanship:
A book is a beautiful thing, a story is a work of art, a fairytale is a thing of dreams. The Bookbinder is all of these – it’s a beautiful, articulate and inventive show that is as engaging as it is mysterious.
Octonauts
✭✭✭✩✩ Thrills spill:
Thrills, spills and exotic undersea animals are all present as expected as the Octonauts take their audience on a Deep Sea Volcano Adventure to explore, rescue and protect.
