The puppet shows have been running for over 43 years and are an important part of Scottish theatre. There is a great programme of family shows, which are suitable for kids aged 5 and older, plus the ‘Pips and Panda' shows, which are designed for kids aged 7 years and older.
Whichever you choose, you and the kids will have a great time from the moment you walk into this amazing place full of puppets to examine.
