THERE will be plenty of Curious Creature this month as Squashbox Theatre comes to town bring with it puppets, comedy, slapstick and live music - plus lots of amazing natural history facts.

Founder of the Curious Creatures wildlife park, Jeremiah Johnson the world-renowned explorer, zoologist and animal collector is lost somewhere in the jungles of Africa. The running of the park over has been handed to his inexperienced nephew Craig… and things don’t quite go as planned.

Expect to meet curious creatures of all shapes and sizes: from performing fleas and gymnastic snails to irritable alligators, over-excited elephants, and a very intelligent orang-utan!

Learn about how animals evolved, how their amazing adaptations help them survive in the wild, and how animals can help us learn more about ourselves. After all, we’re all related if you go back far enough!

Squashbox Theatre is run by the multi-talented Craig Johnson, fresh from an American tour with Kneehigh Theatre, and is sure to delight audiences young and old. You can see the show on Saturday, April 25, from 7pm in Ruan Minor Village Hall, for tickets call 01326 290118. Or on Sunday, April 27 at 7.30pm at Trannack School on 01326 560458.
