How Curious?! + Fairground Mystery
Junior Youth Theatre 1 (age 8 - 11), April 2025
Responding to our 2025 theme - Change & Belonging - our two Junior Youth Theatre 1 companies (age 8 - 11) devised new plays inspired by The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night time.
How Curious?!
How Curious?! is a story of courage, connection, and the power of determination. Young performers unravel a captivating mystery, navigate unique challenges, and discover that stars aren’t just made - they’re born from a little pressure and a lot of imagination.
