The Fisher and His Wife

By Lempen Puppet Theatre Company

A 20 minute outdoor theatre to delight audiences of all ages!

A long time ago there lived a fisherman, together with his wife, in a small cottage made of dirty old metal. They had everything they ever needed and were happy and content. Then one day a talking fish starts granting wishes…

This traditional Brothers Grimm tale has a sudden rebirth and renewed relevance in the present day. Told from a box, mounted at the front of a penny farthing bicycle the show is ideal for outdoors but is equally at home in schools, alternative theatre spaces and even private gardens. It can be performed to small socially distanced audiences up to 4 times per day. (company can provide disinfected seating for about 30 creating 8 family bubbles for up to 4).
