Little Robin Red Vest
About Little Robin Red Vest
Based on the timeless Christmas classic by Jan Fearnley
Adapted and Directed by Victoria Briggs in association with Filskit Theatre
One frosty evening, a week before Christmas, Little Robin washes and irons seven warm vests for the chilly nights to come. As the days go by, he comes across lots of cold and shivering animals, and kindly gives them his vests to wear.
But by Christmas Eve, Little Robin is cold and alone with no vests left. That is, until a mysterious friend arrives to reward his kindness with a perfect little red vest.
Join in for this brand-new adaptation from the best-selling, award-winning Jan Fearnley, ideal for children aged 2 to 6 and their families.
Using original songs, puppetry and integrated Makaton, our playful performers will share this heart-warming tale of friendship, generosity, and the joy of giving.
