Theatre company led by artistic director, Matt Aston. Recent work: #ParkBenchTheatre in Rowntree Park, The Storm Whale & Grandad’s Island @YorkTheatre.
In 2020 it suddenly became tricky to make and watch theatre inside...here’s to better days for everyone in 2021. Thanks to all who made Park Bench Theatre possible last Summer. HAPPY NEW YEAR. XX
UPDATE: Unfortunately, all performances for The Storm Whale on Sunday 2nd January & Monday 3rd January are now cancelled.
Customers affected by this will receive an email from us to discuss the next steps.
We apologise at this time and thank you for bearing with us.
Wishing everyone a safe, happy and storm free Christmas...although knock yourself out with storms from 28th December until the end of January @LittleATheatre 🤞🙏

But we aren't out of the woods yet.
The future remains uncertain as a small charity without regular public subsidy, we need your support more than ever before, to safeguard our future.
Will you help us?

Daughter & I loved The Storm Whale at Little Angel this afternoon. The icing on the cake was being invited into the theatre’s workshop by a woman who my 5yo had waved at through the window. Turned out to be the theatre’s founder, Lyndie Wright! And we got our own little show���
Happy 60th Birthday to @LittleATheatre! #LAT60 🎉 🎁
They opened their doors in 1961 and have since used puppetry to share inspiring stories.
Throwback to our beautiful co-production with @Engine_House and @marlowetheatre, #TheStormWhale, from 2019 🐋

Friday saw the start of #latstormwhale at
@LittleATheatre with @yorktheatreroyal, @marlowetheatre & @enginehousetheatre. We're so incredibly touched that the Christmas run is dedicated to the memory of our Jason. It was the last show that he lit as their #lighting designer.
Took our lil crew to see The Storm Whale @LittleATheatre today. Such a beautiful adaptation of the gorgeous books by Benji Davies. The kids were captivated and the grown ups were all in tears by the end - it was so moving. A little delight for ages 4-8 this Xmas!
We're already in the festive mood here at LAT.
We're also incredibly excited for #LATStormWhale to open on Friday too.
