The Snowflake: Puppetry Workshop with Polka Theatre
Saturday 6 December 2025 at 11:00AM
Sutton Central Library
Event Description
Join Polka Theatre for a magical puppetry workshop at Sutton Central Library, perfect for families to enjoy together!
Inspired by The Snowflake, the much-loved winter tale by Benji Davies, this interactive session invites children aged 4–8 and their grown-ups to step into the snowy world of the story. Together, you'll explore the characters and themes through a lively, interactive storytelling of the book, where families can join in and help bring the story to life through movement, sound and imagination.
Then, inspired by the characters and themes of the story, children and their grown-ups will design and make their own simple puppets, ready to take home and use to retell The Snowflake in your own unique way!
