A beautiful, fun, poetic show for all the family.<\/p>\n
Welcome to a tale of squabbles, scuffles\u2026and buttons!<\/p>\n
George grows grapes. Bessie grows cabbages. One loves the sun. One loves the rain.<\/p>\n
A petty squabble grows and grows and grows into\u2026the war of the buttons!<\/p>\n
In a silly and wonderful tale, buttons and friendships are lost and won, games are played, and audiences young and old can rediscover their inner child!<\/p>\n
Told through an energetic mix of music, puppetry, clowning,\u00a0movement and sign language, War of Button\u2019s distinctive non-verbal\u00a0vocabulary creates a show accessible to deaf, hearing and international audiences.<\/p>\n
\u201cA wonderful hour with which to indulge and enjoy theatre that truly promotes inclusion and breaks down barriers \u201c (Review, April 2013)
