About

Three very funny men seek refuge in a grand but abandoned old house – one of them is Pinocchio and it turns out he’s had quite a life!

Stuff and Nonsense are leaders in family theatre. Their adaptation of Pinocchio combines classic elements of the story – a poor woodcarver, the tell-tale growing nose, the dream of becoming a real boy. The theatre company are known for their hallmark hilarity, skilled puppetry, original music, fantastic staging, outstanding performers and extraordinary physical tricks.

Led by Artistic Director Niki McCretton, Stuff and Nonsense work with children, families, artists and theatres across the globe to make memorable and rewarding shows. The music is by Dom Coyote with additional music by Tim Dalling. Founded in 2000, Stuff and Nonsense has since been at the forefront of family theatre, leading the way in energetic, thought-provoking and playfully mischievous productions, full of fantastic puppetry and physical action.

They have performed to over 320,000 people nationwide since 2010 with return visits to many venues. At Christmas they often present several productions across the UK at once!

Invest in your children’s imaginations: join us in the theatre and take playfulness home with you!
