by Thingumajig Theatre.
In forgotten boxes in an attic, a woman discovers the story of her grandfather, a survivor of the First World War, and his unexpected
encounter with a stray dog who knew no boundaries.
With evocative puppet characters, live music and an ever-changing set, Thingumajig Theatre presents a timeless fable on war and the miracle of friendship when all else seems lost.
Originally created in 2008 in association with the Imperial War Museum North, the play offers a gentle, personal voice in this
year’s commemorations.
Glasshouse Arts Centre, Friday 17th 6pm
