About the show

A clockwork mouse and his child are discarded by children on Christmas Day. Lost and alone, they desperately want to get back home to the toyshop. Russell Hoban's children's tale of escape, the search for freedom and reunited families was adapted for the stage by Tamsin Oglesby and directed by Paul Hunter.
