Folksy Theatre are a rural touring theatre company who tour the UK performing top quality open-air and indoor theatre productions.

When a mother duck’s eggs hatch and one duckling looks different from all the rest, the other ducklings laugh and make fun of them. The awkward little bird sets off on their own and is met with hecklers, hunters, and cruel weather. Come and join them on their journey to discover who they really are! Filled with live music, puppetry and colourful characters. Will the ugly duckling find their place in the world and discover true happiness? Bring along your picnics, folding chairs and friends and family, to enjoy this wonderful open-air, family musical!

This is an outdoor production, so please bring your own chair or blanket to sit on, a picnic to dig into, and dress for the weather!

Doors open at 12pm.

Tickets bookable via the Folksy Theatre website →

Notes on Performance

  • The Hall has limited parking, therefore we recommend travelling to the show using the Exchange Quay tram stop or via lifts and taxis.
  • Chairs, picnics, blankets, and any other low level accessories are welcome.
  • In case of rain, please don’t bring umbrellas as they block sightlines for other audience members. Ponchos and raincoats are just as fetching, so please wear these instead. The show will go ahead in rain, but will be reviewed if thundery conditions.
