I have always been a huge fan of Julia Donaldson books, both as a teacher and now as a parent. We were so excited then to hear that Stick Man- Live on Stage was coming to the the Sherman Cymru Theatre in Cardiff and we were off to review it.
Sadly, that wasn’t to be as exhaustion hit the two youngest after their first day back at school and sleep was needed instead of a fun show. Luckily for young fans, the show goes on! There are still some tickets left for the Sherman Theatre tomorrow and the Scamp Theatre tour continues until August, so I’m hoping we will catch up with it again:
A FANTASTICK SHOW FOR ALL BRANCHES OF THE FAMILY TREE!
Following a smash hit West End season, Scamp Theatre’s delightful adaptation of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s hugely popular children’s book Stick Man is now touring the UK! Touching, funny and utterly original, this award-winning production features a trio of top actors and is packed full of puppetry, songs, live music and funky moves.
‘Stick Man lives in the family tree, with his Stick Lady Love and their stick children three…’
But the world outside the family tree is a dangerous place for Stick Man. A dog wants to play fetch with him, a swan builds a nest with him and he even ends up on a fire!
How will Stick Man ever get back to the family tree?
Guarantees more fun than you can shake a stick at!
Most suitable for children aged 3+ with their friends & families
The reviews look amazing:
@ShermanCymru Stickman was amazing. So funny & interactive! Have never been to production where beach balls were batted into audience before

A wonderful evening watching StickMan at @ShermanCymru with the boys. Still some tickets for tomorrow before Stick Family move on!

If you are in Cardiff tomorrow and can make the 10.30am or 1.30pm performance, then book your tickets ASAP so you don’t miss out!
