Paper Wings - Touring Dates

Rhubarb Theatre's new show for 2012

From July 2012, Rhubarb Theatre returns with their new wordless wonder Paper Wings.

Torn from their homeland, Tatao and her mother have arrived in a strange new world. Confused, lost and homesick, they set about to start a new life. 

Full of colour, music, creativity and imagination, Paper Wings will take the audience on a rollercoaster of emotions. So prepare for joy and sadness, laughter and tears, and surprises around every corner.

Suitable for the whole family.

Why book Paper Wings?

  • We find out what it might feel like as a stranger in a new country
  • Beautiful masks, amazing sets and fabulous performers
  • Inventive storytelling full of heart-warming charm and wonderful comedy.

To book Paper Wings for Rural Touring venues and theatres, please contact Philip or Kirsty on:
