What's On
Maison Foo present
Memoirs of a Biscuit Tin
a topsy turvy tale for grown-ups
Tuesday 28 February
'On a lost lost day, was a lost lost street. Down
the lost lost street was a lost lost house that seemed to have
misplaced its owner...'
All is not well at number 92. Mrs Benjamin has disappeared,
leaving her decaying house to fend for itself. So in an act of
desperation, the house, determined to find its missing owner set
off on a strange and enchanting journey like no other. This
intriguing tale follows the story of a wall, a floor and a chimney,
a forgotten old lady and the memories that lie within. With an
inventive blend of clowning, visual theatre and puppetry Maison Foo
brings to life the imaginative topsy turvy world lurking behind the
door of Number 92.
