Based on the heart-warming and funny book The Hug by Eoin McLaughlin and Polly Dunbar, starring a Hedgehog and a Tortoise both in search of a restorative hug. Set to Tom Gray’s beautiful and witty music, the audience are invited on a journey full of fun, laughter and love…and at the end, a very special hug from our puppets.
