Ten in the Bed

Half Moon Theatre

16 June | 11:00-11:50 + 14:00-14:50 | The Library Theatre

Is it a bed? A boat? Or a giant slice of toast? For Naz and Iggy their bed is a place where imagination can fill their tummies with treats and take them to familiar warm places. Well, sometimes.

Join the boat-bed’s disparate crew as they dream up playful tales of pirates, misunderstood sharks and fishing trips that hook unexpected catches. But what happens if the bed isn’t big enough to fit everyone in?

This humorous new show celebrates the power of imaginary play and proves there’s always room to have fun, even when the world is at its most daunting.

★★★★ “A funny, anarchic play that will capture the interest and imagination of children…. [Party] wowed the kids and kept them all gripped…the magical grand finale had every child in the room screaming with joy.”
Everything Theatre on Party, a Half Moon production

★★★★ “An utterly enjoyable production... Dust deals with a number of difficult emotions, but with such a light touch it’s suitable for children of any age, including the adult kind… A captivating, imaginative production that uses tiny particles to make big things possible”
Everything Theatre on Dust, a Half Moon co-production: 2021 Off West End Award Winner, Best Show for 5-11s

“A colourful, amazing production”
The Guardian on Grandad Anansi, a Half Moon co-production
