# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Brave Bettie
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 13 Mar, 2026 at 01:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Bettie feels most alive in the forest, surrounded by whispering trees and rustling leaves. It’s her sanctuary – a place where she can breathe deeply, think clearly and feel at peace. But what happens when her safe haven is under threat?

When the council announces plans to cut down her favourite tree, Bettie is devastated. At home, she struggles to manage her emotions and doesn’t think of herself as brave. But the forest needs her now more than ever.

The night before the woodcutters come, Bettie meets the bold and enigmatic Paida Moyo. Their chance encounter sparks an extraordinary journey of friendship and self-discovery. Can Bettie and Paida rally to save the woodlands before it’s too late? Will Bettie’s newfound courage be enough to protect the critter crew and her beloved trees? And how might the forest return the favour?

Written by Tatenda Naomi Matsvai (Hot Orange), Brave Bettie is a lyrical and magical woodland adventure, brought to life with poetry, songs, live music and stories that explore their home heritage in Zimbabwe. This playful yet powerful production looks at resilience, self-belief, social activism and the environment, offering an urgent message for young audiences.

Co-produced by Half Moon and Z-arts, this exciting partnership unites two of the UK’s leading children’s theatre companies to create an unforgettable experience for young audiences and families. Previous co-productions include award-winning productions of Dust and Grandad Anansi, which tours again in autumn 2025.

Brave Bettie was developed with support from the Leche Trust and the Austin & Hope Pilkington Trust.
