Two sheep think they know everything about sleep.
They’re experts in the field.
But tonight they’re wide awake.
Snuggle up and join two sheep on a journey through the joys and frustrations of everything bedtime. A touching, musical adventure filled with sensory play, for 0-3 year olds and their (very tired) grown ups.
Audience Feedback

‘My baby was mesmerised’
‘The show was beautiful, funny and emotional and perfect for the tiny ones’
Dreamt up by The Herd
Concept by Ruby Thompson and Sam Caseley
Composer Ysabelle Wombwell

Designer India Harvey

The Herd makes space for childhood.
