This Show is Rubbish
Wave is only ten years old. The planet only has ten years left. Not every kid saves up for a litter picker. Or decides to clean every beach in the world (starting with Newcastle). Or talks to ducks. But every kid wants to be a hero, so Wave isn’t that unusual, really. She’s got a bucket, a plan and a secret, and it’ll take a displaced toy, a delusional community support officer and a beachful of surprises to discover it. Within this musical adventure is the story of a mother and daughter, and how the things that divide them could also be what unites them. With original new music, innovative eco-puppetry and original storytelling, This Show Is Rubbish gives children and their grown-ups a new way of protecting the world around them – not through obligation, but through imagination.
Pay what you feel.
