THE GREAT LIBRARY MYSTERY
Someone has stolen the end of the story
Something very strange has happened in the library. One of its most treasured books has been mysteriously altered, and the ending has disappeared.
The audience become a team of detectives, following clues, solving puzzles, and stepping into the world of the book to uncover the truth.
Along the way, they’ll encounter familiar faces from much-loved stories, but everyone seems to have a different version of what happened. Who can they trust? And who is hiding something?
A playful, physical, and interactive adventure for families, created especially for libraries. Combining Tmesis’ trademark physical theatre with music, movement, puppetry and storytelling, the show transforms the library into a magical world where books come to life, and the audience become part of the story.
