Uncle Henry is a mad scientist who has invented a machine that automatically sucks ideas out of his head - except one day he goes too far and the machine sucks out all his imagination!

Sailing aboard a wheelbarrow, Uncle Henry meets Horace the Handsome Slug - a bug who crawls his way to stardom in Hollywood, but at a terrible cost.

Then there’s Dougie the World’s Richest Duck, who battles fire, ice and abominable Snowmen to rescue the princess and get the reward - only to realise that money isn’t as important as friendship.

 


Finally he meets a tiny Sigmund Freud who leads Uncle Henry on the most dangerous journey of all... a voyage of discovery into his own brain! Uncle Henry must look deep inside his head to discover what’s really important to him.

Animated storytelling at its best, featuring puppets, pop-up illustrations, special effects and an ocean-going wheelbarrow. For families and children aged 4 to 10.

Tickets £1.00 from the Festival office on telephone 028 9023 2403
