"Edinburgh should
consider itself fortunate to play host to some
of the talent on display at this annual event
. . . Artistic Director Tony Reekie should be
congratulated for setting an example of social
consciousness that the adult theatre would do
well to follow"..
The List
"A terrific festival that celebrates the best in children's theatre - shows that could teach most adult theatre a thing or two . . . so, drag the kids away from the computer and open up your eyes and their imaginations".

Clown
inspired by the book
by Quentin Blake
Clown
finds himself thrown head-first into a dustbin,
along with lots of other discarded toys.
Bravely he takes charge of his fate, and
goes off in search of help - and a new home.
Enter the wonder-filled world of author-illustrator
Quentin Blake, as the award-winning Travelling
Light translates a wordless story from the
page to the stage, to create a memorable
show for children of all ages.
Quentin Blake is internationally celebrated,
both for his solo work and for his collaborations
with authors such as Michael Rosen and Roald
Dahl. This play follows on from the nationwide
success of Travelling Light’s earlier
productions for the very young, Cloudland
and Papa, Please Get The Moon For Me.
