About Spot’s Birthday Party

From the producers of David Williams ‘Mr Stink; Sam Bradshaw Productions Presents: Spot’s Birthday Party

Words and Songs by Guy Unsworth

Based on the Books by Eric Hill

Spot had such fun celebrating his birthday last year that he is back to celebrate again, and everyone’s invited! Join Spot and his friends for this engaging and interactive show for everyone age 2 plus and their grown-ups.

With integrated Makaton, catchy songs, dancing, and lots of interactive party games, this is going to be the best birthday party ever!

Based on the beloved Eric Hill classic Happy Birthday Spot, this brand-new adaptation is the perfect introduction to theatre for children – they’ll be encouraged to sign and dance along with Steve the Monkey, Tom the Crocodile, Helen the Hippo and Sally and Sam, Spot’s parents, to say a big Happy Birthday Spot!

Spot has been an integral part of childhood for over 40 years, and with his inquisitive nature, sense of curiosity, boundless energy, and simple shapes and colours, Spot helps families, babies, and toddlers explore the world around them.
