Garlic Theatre travel all the way from Norwich to the Scottish Mask and Puppet Centre to present the Three Billy Goats Gruff... who's that trip trapping over my bridge?

Three Billy Goats Gruff

About Three Billy Goats Gruff

This is the simple story of three hungry goats and a grumpy old troll, told with a gentle ecological message. Watch out for the dance of the goats, the flying troll and loads and loads of rubbish. Garlic Theatre create a magical world to entrance and delight a young audience. With puppets, live music, storytelling and singing.

We travel to Sweden where the troll lives happily under his bridge fishing. Nobody knows he is there because he is so shy. The people from the town start to throw rubbish under the bridge and soon there are no more fish in the river. Our troll becomes so hungry that when he sees a goat trip trapping by he tries to eat him and the story unfolds. What happens to the troll and how is the river cleaned of all the rubbish?

Craft Activity, Colour-in and Cut-Out Puppets and Masks Kits in our cafe from one hour before and also after the show. Lots of designs to choose from mermaids, sharks, butterflies, dragons, rabbits and more. All materials provided at the cafe tables, felt tips, scissors and hole punches £2.50 each £6.00 for 3.
