Once Upon a Jar
A special visitor arrives with a suitcase full of old gifts – some mysterious jars from birthdays long past. Each jar contains a distinct smell and countless story possibilities. Children shape the narrative, bringing their far-fetched ideas to life, before embarking on a treasure hunt to find the most mysterious smell of all.
Imagination leads the way in this scented adventure.
Once Upon A Jar was originally created with the support of Patch Theatre.
Suitable for 5-8 year olds
"Loved this... very engaging and interactive. Kids held onto every word that was spoken. It reminded me of a choose your own adventure"
"The children were immediately in awe of the jars and they just couldn't wait to smell what was inside of each of them. It was just precious hearing all the replies"
There is seating for adults. Children are seated on the floor. The show finishes outside the venue.
