Book Tickets

Award-winning storyteller Danyah Miller brings Michael Morpurgo’s enchanting story to life in an 'utterly magical show' (The Stage).

This intimate show is set in a library full of books that hold more than stories within their pages. It is a tale of the power of books, and the bravery of a young boy called Tomas. Tomas hates reading and school, but his world is turned upside down the day he meets the Unicorn Lady in his local library...

An enchanting and interactive production, I Believe in Unicorns, which won an Argus Angel Award for Artistic Excellence at Brighton Festival, sparks imagination in both young and old. We challenge you not to believe in unicorns after joining Tomas’ spellbinding journey.

Suitable for families with children aged 6 plus and anyone who loves stories and books.

'Danyah’s performance is a tour de force. The show is moving and memorable, a glorious example of the magic of storytelling. I didn’t like it, I loved it!' - Michael Morpurgo

BOOK SWAP
To encourage the sharing of stories, the company will also be running a book swap after the show, so please bring a pre-loved, age appropriate book to swap if you would like to join in.

PRE SHOW CRAFT
Come along to our pre-show craft workshop where you can make a magical bookmark to take home with you!
