Matipo Arts: Asha and the Troll (Harlow Museum)
Back in the olden times, when children could do as they pleased, there was a house, on the edge of the forest.
Asha and The Troll is a theatre performance for five to eight-year-olds and their families in which storytellers unfold a world of forests, friendship, puppetry, percussion, and… trolls! Follow Asha as she meets an unlikely friend and learns to love their differences.
This performance will be held in Harlow Museum's beautiful walled gardens at 10:30am on Saturday 1 June.
Adults tickets are £4.00 and children go free. This event does have a limited capacity, so please do book a free ticket for every child who will be attending.
Proudly supported by the Essex County Council Arts and Cultural Fund.
