Where is Fairyland?

A show with live music for children of three years and upwards

Watch two fairies crash land on a table. See them attempt to fly off again.

On the day the wind stops, two fairies fall out of the sky and land here on a table. They find out very quickly that they can’t just fly off and get on with their journeys to there. They are stuck here and they are stuck with each other and all around them is the ground. They find plenty of help on the ground in finding ways to get to where they want to go but somehow they always end up back here at the table. The table makes a good place to have a fairy feast and a great shelter to sleep underneath but it will only be good for taking off if the wind comes back again. Will the wind come back?
