Don’t Miss “Magical and Beautiful” ‘Flyaway Katie’!

Posted: 26th November 2025

Called ‘Magical and Beautiful’ by the Guardian Newspaper, the Long-Nosed Puppets will be performing the special ‘Flyaway Katie’ at the Dukes Festival of Stories on Saturday at Eaton House The Manor. Apart from meeting a number of wonderful authors and enjoying treats, fun and games for all the family, you can get into the Christmassy mood with this wonderful piece of theatre by buying tickets for £5 at dukesfestivalofstories.com.

Flyaway Katie is an inspiring flight of fancy about the power of imagination based on the popular children’s book by Polly Dunbar with music by Tom Gray of Gomez.

Katie is all alone and feeling grey. The birds in the picture on her wall look so colourful – if only Katie could be as bright as them, who knows what might happen? The show is bursting with colour, movement and surprises, with puppets of varying scales acting the story.

The show is aimed at 2-7-year-olds and will be 35 mins of pure joy!
