Little Robin Red Vest

Presented by Victoria Briggs in association with Filskit Theatre

Sat 22 Nov – Sun 14 Dec 2025

Based on the timeless Christmas classic by best-selling, award-winning author, Jan Fearnley.

One frosty evening, a week before Christmas, Little Robin washes and irons seven warm vests for the chilly nights to come. As the days go by, he comes across lots of cold and shivering animals, and kindly gives them his vests to wear. But by Christmas Eve, Little Robin is cold and alone with no vests left. That is, until a mysterious friend arrives to reward his kindness with a perfect little red vest.

Join us for this brand-new adaptation aimed at children aged 2-6 and their families. Using original songs, puppetry and integrated Makaton, our playful performers will share this heart-warming tale of friendship, generosity, and the joy of giving.

Adapted and Directed by Victoria Briggs

Produced by Filskit Theatre

Original Music by David Lewington
