- “...Life-affirming and uplifting...a marvel of exquisite theatre-craft”
The Herald (Scotland)
Step inside an enchanting travelling theatre tent to discover the weird and wonderful world of Cheeseboy. When a freak meteor turns his planet into a bubbling fondue, Cheeseboy embarks on a series of otherworldly adventures in search of his missing parents.
Cheeseboy's whimsical universe is brought to life by the magical storytelling of Stephen Sheehan. Set to the rich and emotive music of Quentin Grant, The Tragical Life of Cheeseboy incorporates exquisite setdesign with puppetry, projection, and ingeniously simple theatricality.
Slingsby continues to direct captivating theatre pieces for young audiences and adults alike, canvassing both the dark and delightful aspects of human existence. Reminiscent of Edward Scissorhands, The Tragical Life of Cheeseboy is a richly imaginative production, which will transport you to a most curious world.

Whimsical and offbeat shows are becoming a common feature at this year's International Arts Festival and The Tragical Life of Cheeseboy is no exception. The only difference is that it is a play for children.

Finegan Kruckemeyer's theatrical wings stretch skywards to a small planet, a small boy made of cheese and a boldly alternative play for children.
