Best Bits

Inventively and beautifully told using puppetry, movement and music Laika is a Sci-fi adventure about braving the unknown. Before Neil Armstrong took one small step for man (and one giant leap for mankind), there was Laika: the first living creature in space as part of the Soviet space programme.

That was in 1957. Today it’s 2057, and Sami lives with his mum, an astronaut who thinks there could be a future out in space. However, Sami doesn’t understand why his mother has to leave as his life is on planet earth.

  • An amazing journey for science fiction fans
  • This richly inventive and subtly complex space adventure gently examines the notion of difficult decisions and heading off into the unknown
  • A beautiful story that looks at the life of astronauts and explorers and the quest for scientific progress
  • Uses puppetry and imaginative props and staging to send you into outer space
  • A fantastic theatre treat for ages 6-12
  • Weekend and Half Term performances available
  • Tickets available from just £8
