Led by theatre maker Alice Coghlan in the character of a sailor onboard Lemuel Gulliver’s ship, this family workshop, uses theatre, song and storytelling to bring children and their families into the world of Gulliver’s Travels. First we are ship wrecked in the land of the tiny Lilliputians where Gulliver is twelve times taller than everyone! After Gulliver escapes with his eyes we set sail to Brobdingnag the land of the giants, where Gulliver survives being abducted by giant monkeys, dogs and eagles!
