The Three Bears

A hilarious fairy tale remix for the whole family!

This is an unusual and quirky take on a well known story, flipping the classic fairytale on its head.

The show is packed full of surprises, slapstick chaos and heart-warming twists, following the Three Bears and their encounter with ‘Goldie’, who changes their lives forever.

So, get ready for giggles galore in this wild, high-energy adventure.

Perfect for all ages, the show celebrates love, laughter and the beauty of families of all shapes and sizes.

A delightful theatre experience bursting with fun that all children everywhere will treasure forever.

Easy Read Visual StoryAudio Introduction
“A subversive, but joyfully anarchic remix of the Goldilocks story, celebrating chosen families through inventive physical comedy, tender chaos and theatrical flair.”
Everything Theatre
“Absolutely adored The 3 Bears, kept my little one totally engaged throughout, heart, humour and so much fun!”
Audience Member
“A queer, playful remix that celebrates the messy truth that “just right” doesn’t always look the way tradition tells us it should.”
