The Lion Inside
About the event
"No matter your size, we all have a mouse and a lion inside."
A heart-warming tale about confidence, self-esteem, and a shy little mouse who sets out on a journey to find his roar, from the creators of The Koala Who Could. Based on the best-selling story by Rachel Bright & Jim Field, this joyous new stage adaptation features puppetry, music and song.
In a dry dusty place where the sand sparkled gold, stood a mighty flat rock, all craggy and old. And under that rock in a tinyful house, lived the littlest, quietest, meekest brown mouse. Fed up of being ignored and forgotten by the other animals, Mouse wishes he could roar like Lion. But, as he discovers, even the biggest, bossiest people are scared sometimes... and even the smallest creatures can have the heart of a lion!
