More about the show:

Far away in the snowy North country, young Nils lives with his clever Granny. She is making him a gift - a magical patchwork quilt. It is nearly finished…when suddenly it disappears…

Wild weather, magic spells, and twelve very clever camels all play their part…but will Nils get his quilt back in time for his special day?

This magical, musical story-ride features a ‘crankie theatre.’This  handcrafted theatre-box with scrolling scenery inside is a slice of pre-cinematic magic, and features illustrations inspired by Jan Pienkowski’s original artwork from the book. We are delighted to have been granted permission by Joan Aiken's estate to present and adapt this story. 

Show length: 35 mins. Suitable for age 3 +
