Persephone: A Tale of The Seasons at Leeds Playhouse, Leeds 18 — 19 March 2025 Tickets from £15.00 — Book now

Spring has finally sprung, and as we welcome these lighter, brighter days, families are invited to a magical seasonal adventure for babies and toddlers at Persephone at Leeds Playhouse on 18-19 March, produced by Little Angel Theatre.

Babies and toddlers aged six months to three years (and their grownups), are invited to join Persephone and her animal friends on a gentle, sensory journey through the seasons. Experience the magic of the ever-changing spring, summer, autumn and winter, packed with the sights, sounds, and sensations of nature, and collecting things along the way!

Hear the robin’s song as winter arrives – can you catch a snowflake? Hop through the meadow in spring as flowers bloom – will an April shower fall? Soar through summer with a butterfly – feel the sun’s warmth on your face! Watch the leaves turn in autumn as a hedgehog rustles through the undergrowth – can you hold the wind?

With music, movement, puppetry and lots of sweet surprises, Persephone at Leeds Playhouse is the perfect first theatre experience for little ones, offering a special way to explore nature’s changing seasons. Don’t miss this nature-filled adventure for the littlest theatre goers and their families too – you’ll all love it – we promise! Book your tickets now.
