Three Billy Goats Gruff

Thu 30 Nov - Sun 31 Dec, 2023 Archive
Trip – Trap, Trip – Trap, Trip – Trap... Who is that going over MY bridge?

Join our three adventurer billy goats as they dare to cross the bridge to the other side.  The troll is determined this is his land and you need to get off it – but the billy goats have a few thoughts on that!

Hiccup Theatre in collaboration with Derby Theatre and Polka Theatre bring you another festive treat from the team that brought you The Emperor’s New Clothes, Little Red, Goldilocks and The Three Bears and The Gingerbread Man. Featuring beautiful puppetry, fantastic storytelling, a tricksy troll, three Billy Goats Gruff and amazing live music and original songs!

Audio description will be creatively integrated into performances. – This will be achieved in a range of ways, such as through live and recorded sounds and music and actors fully embodying their characters.

“Hiccup theatre’s clever take on the fairy-tale is full of music, puppetry, surprising twists, witty dialogue and madcap energy”

– The Guardian
