Booster Cushion Theatre Big Book Visits London's Book Benches!

The Booster Cushion Theatre team visited the Books About Town Book Benches recently. We had a great time following some of the trails and enjoying the views of London from the benches. Our Big Books got to come with us to! Our first blog post will be about the Big Book Tall Tale book visiting the Terry Pratchett's Discworld book bench. It seemed the most fitting considering Big Book Tall Tales is set in a library and has the biggest book - a 6ft wearable rainbow book!

Old McDonald in Stourbridge Library

We started the Summer Reading Challenge in Stourbridge Library with our Mythical Maze themed Old McDonald and the Three Pigs Plus..

It was a lovely day and the library had lots of signups so great to see more children reading this summer!



Old McDonald Visits The Seabright Centre

Old McDonald took another visit to Hackney at the Seabright Centre. It was a very busy sunny day and we were so lucky to enjoy our performance outside. A great bonus of Booster Cushion Theatre shows is that we can enjoy them in a variety of spaces!
