A PLAYFUL and inventive twist on the legend of the Abominable Snowman will be presented at Otley Courthouse in December.

The pre-Christmas show by Moon on a Stick features puppetry, live music and storytelling and will be staged on Tuesday, December 19.

Directed by the company's critically acclaimed Artistic Director Alice Sillett, the production reveals the 'monster' to be a misunderstood and lonely individual who becomes an unlikely hero.

Set amidst snowy mountains, where things are not always as they seem, the show is suitable for anyone aged three or over.

A multi-sensory and accessible experience, it has also been specially adapted to be appropriate for children with special education needs and autism.

Committed to making visually exciting work which is accessible to a wide audience, Moon On A Stick perform throughout London and beyond and have received funding from The Arts Council England.

Their performance of The Abominable Snowman at Otley Courthouse takes place at 2.30pm and tickets cost £9 for adults and £7 for children.
