The Forest Door (2026)

What happens when you go through a mysterious portal into another world?

On the other side you find yourself in a magical forest, alive with wonder and excitement.

Here, you’ll meet other enchanting creatures preparing for a big festival… but there is a problem.

Join us on this brand-new adventure, as we explore traditions, memories and solve problems; resulting in one unforgettable celebration.

The Forest Door is a new theatre offer for primary aged children, incorporating performance, interactive in-classroom activities, and support and resources for teachers and families.

Grown from the imaginations of young people – The Forest Door is based on ideas from local children who took part in the development in Bristol and Exeter.
