Synopsis

A father returns home with a magical cloak. A cloak that hides a story… And did you know that the ugly duckling was never ugly? He was truly monstrous…! Or that Goldilocks was never a tale about a little girl. It was always a tale about a granny – a mean, thieving granny who has plans for something quite nasty…

Join performance poet Joseph Coelho, National Poetry Day Ambassador, as he unravels familiar fairytales to create fresh contemporary classics in an enchanting performance for young and old alike.
