The Curious Scrapbook of Josephine Bean 9 - 12 Oct 2014

Part of the Dublin Theatre Festival Family Season 2014. The clues are in the pages of The Curious Scrapbook of Josephine Bean.

Hurry! Dr Patricia Baker needs your help. She has made a thrilling new discovery – a dusty, dog-eared and secret-filled scrapbook.

Step inside this whimsical detective story and help her crack the clues to find its author. Slowly, page by page, her mysterious scrapbook comes alive through beautifully delicate puppetry, a thrilling soundtrack and imaginative visual effects, until the extraordinary truth about its owner is revealed. Who was Josephine Bean?

Created and performed by the wildly inventive Shona Reppe, this unique exploration of life and love is a sensory delight for the entire family. Winner of teh 2012 Theatre Award UK for Best Show for Children and Young People. This is a welcome return to the Family Season following her much-loved Potato Needs a Bath (Dublin Theatre Festival 2012).
