A Winter's Tail - a solstice celebration for early years 
Touring winter 2025/26

The snow is falling and the solstice is approaching. Ratty is getting ready. She wants everything to be really rat-tastic! But will her friends make it through the snow to the winter woodland revels?
Can you help them on their journey? There’ll be excitement, adventure, play-acting, games, music, a splattering of silliness and lots of snow!
Led by The Last Baguette, A Winter’s Tail is a fun, relaxed play-along theatre adventure. Expect to play, move, watch and laugh.
The show lasts 1 hour including a stay and play session, and is created for ages 2+ and their grown-ups. Younger and older siblings welcome!
"A wonderful interactive, inclusive, entertaining and enjoyable experience - thank you!" 
Natalie Kidman, Black Country Touring
"Magical interactive storytelling this week at the library with Last Baguette theatre company! The children were enthralled"
Little Stars

"Magical afternoon with TheLastBaguette at Bridport Arts Centre. Loved every minute"
Claire Tudge, Director of Bridport Arts Centre
