As the opening event for Stroud Arts Festival 80th Celebration, we can’t wait for Autin Dance Theatre to return to Stroud with this spectacular roaming theatrical experience that ignites imaginations, inspires wonder.
Brimstone is a fearsome yet misunderstood beast, brought to life by four highly skilled puppeteers to tell the magical tale of his adventures from a hidden island. In this interactive promenade performance, Brimstone will roam high, low, around, and through the crowds — on a heartfelt quest to find his long-lost friend.
Starting our journey at St Laurence Church, Brimstone will be on his quest to find his long-lost friend at 11.30am, 12.30pm & 1.30pm. Meet us at the Church or join us on the High Street to help us explore the town.
