About Hickory Dickory Dock
Presented by Garlic Theatre
In a marvellous museum of clocks is the wonderful Mouse Clock for all to see. One day, the clock gets broken, and a brave little mouse runs away…
In another part of town, Mrs Hickory orders a new alarm clock, and a huge box arrives on her doorstep. Why is it so big? And what is that squeaking sound inside?
As time ticks by, can Mrs Hickory and her cat Dickory catch the mouse running all over the house and will the beautiful old clock ever chime again?
Join the show for a merry slapstick show, starring glove puppets, silly museum curators, dozy delivery drivers, a magnificent clock and that song you’ve all been waiting for.
