Important changes - ticketbuyers for 1.30pm& 4.30pm on Weds 24 July will have been notified that these shows are now sadly not going ahead as planned.  Tickets will be available to swap to any of the other three shows which ARE going ahead 23rd July  (2.30pm & 4.30pm) or 24 July at 11am. 

Based on the classic children’s book series by David McKee and adapted for stage by Suzanne Miller with songs by Allison Leyton-Brown, Elmer the Patchwork Elephant Show, is a celebration of individuality and the power of laughter!

​Elephants, as everyone knows, are big, have trunks, and are grey. But Elmer is a patchwork of brilliant colours.  His fun-loving and cheerful personality keeps everyone in a playful mood, until the day he decides to find out what it would be like to blend in with the herd.

​Elmer The Patchwork Elephant Show tells the tale of an elephant that stands out – both with his patchwork-coloured skin and his sense of humour – but who ultimately realises it's his unique characteristics that his friends truly value. 

​The show’s subtle message that it is always best to be yourself, combined with the vibrant colour and cheeky humour of the main character, makes Elmer a great show for children of all ages.
