A funny, very imaginative book…manages the fine line between magic and reality so skillfully, to the point where the most fantastic events feel plausible.” J.K. Rowling

Adapted from the cherished children’s novel by Paul Gallico, Manxmouse is a wonderfully imaginative story told in the most imaginative way possible. Instead of gray fur, his is bright blue. Instead of tiny mouse ears, his are large and rabbit-like. Some may say he’s the strangest mouse they’ve ever seen, but Manxmouse doesn’t mind being different.

From renowned Dutch children’s company, Theatergroep Kwatta, this epic tale of a tiny hero is full of lively characters, inventive theatrical feats, and important lessons about what hope can accomplish when coupled with bravery. With a hero everyone can root for, this tiny mouse’s epic quest is sure to engage student’s imaginations while opening their hearts.
