About This Event

Everything was perfect in the midnight garden.

Everything was perfect in the midnight garden. The flowers grew, the fairies flew, the grobbity grobbits danced a merry dance in the twinkly moonlight. Then one day, without warning, the deranged gardener from next door threw the shed door wide, and let loose the massive-evil pitchfork-of-doom!

PIXIEMATOSIS is a happy/sad tale of tiny extraordinary creatures living in a nocturnal paradise who realise, far too late, that they are being exploited for a distinctly sinister purpose.

Featuring sqwonky puppets, odd-automata and a slew of charity-shop rejects, PIXIEMATOSIS is not unlike watching a lost episode of Bagpuss, filmed by the Tales of the Unexpected crew… or witnessing Fingermouse being folded up and used to stop a pub table wobbling.

Come along, be charmed, be appalled; get swept up in the existential madness of it all.
