Hermit 5 - 8 Oct 2023

We welcome Simone de Jong Company all the way from Amsterdam with this funny and sensitive show for children aged 2-7.

I can see a square. Is it a house?

There's a noise coming from inside. What's happening over there?

Suddenly a flap opens. Could there be something inside?

What could be inside? Or rather, who could be inside?


An imaginative performance about a teeny tiny house. The owner isn't home. But we can hear him.

Through movement, music and imagination, Simone de Jong creates a highly visual and funny show about being alone and coming home.

Presented in partnership with Dublin Theatre Festival as part of the Theatre for Children season at DTF 2023
