THE Mousehole Cat by PuppetCraft — based on the award-winning book — comes to Hatherleigh Town Hall on Saturday.
The story is told through the eyes of Mowzer the cat, about the Cornish fishing village of Mousehole, where a storm has been raging for weeks.
Everyone is hungry as the boats cannot leave the harbour to fish.
Old Tom the fisherman and his cat Mowzer set out to sea in their small boat, braving the fury of the Great Storm-Cat to try and save the village.
The story is inspired by an old folk legend — which is still celebrated each year in the village of Mousehole.
A charming tale brought to life using carved wooden puppets, coloured shadows, live music, song and sound-effects.
Set in a beautiful stage of sea, sky and the little Cornish village.
Since 1990 Devon based PuppetCraft has performed nationally and internationally — creating puppet theatre full of humour, drama, music and stunning visual magic.
Here is a delightful tale splendidly told as the performers bring the pages of the book vividly to life in a tale designed to delight youngsters of all ages.
