GiraffeTall Stories Children's Theatre Company

‘Tall Stories sets the benchmark for children's theatre’ Sunday Times

'I always thought it was because my feet are so smelly...' Have you ever wondered how the giraffe got his long neck, how the camel got her hump or how the leopard got his spots? Find out in this brand new show from the company that brought you The Gruffalo, The Snow Dragon and Monster Hits. A genius scientist and an eccentric storyteller bring us their fantastic and almost entirely contradictory versions of how certain amazing animals came to be - and how certain others came not to be (like the incredible duck-billed octopus). Stories, silliness and a very confused giraffe combine in this ridiculous new show for 4s and up.
