Jemima Puddle-Duck

Poor Jemima wants to hatch her own eggs, but when she meets a charming ‘whiskered gentleman’, will he turn out to be as nice as he seems?

Quantum Theatre is back with a brand new adaptation of the much-loved Beatrix Potter Tale, The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck.

Prevented from hatching her eggs at the farm, foolish Jemima goes in search of a nesting place in the forest and soon she meets a charming ‘sandy-whiskered gentleman’ who offers her the perfect nesting place in his wood-shed.

But why is his wood-shed full of feathers and why is he asking her to collect the herbs for roast duck? Kip, the farm dog fears the worst…

Join Jemima on her feather-ruffling adventures in this delightful new adaptation of Beatrix Potter’s family favourite.
