The production has won six Olivier Awards and follows sisters Satsuki and Mei through one extraordinary summer. It tells a coming-of-age story about childhood, imagination and a magical fantasy world.

This production is not suitable for children under 4 years old, including babes in arms. Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult aged 18 or over, who must be seated with them and accompany them throughout the visit. Children need to occupy their own seats at all times.

All people entering the theatre, regardless of age, must have a valid ticket. Single seats cannot be left in a row when booking. Younger children and babes in arms are welcome at relaxed performances.

The show features puppets, including some large-scale puppets that interact in audience space. It also contains themes of an ill parent in hospital, plus live music and sound effects that may be loud at times and possibly scary for some younger children.
