The Detective Dog
Tiny & Tall Productions present an accessible and imaginative adaptation of Julia Donaldson’s award winning book, The Detective Dog, featuring puppetry, song and magical scent technology, bringing the story alive on stage for audiences of all ages.
Whether it’s finding a lost shoe or discovering who did a poo on the new gravel path, Nell’s ever-sniffing nose is always hard at work. So when the books at her owner Peter’s school have disappeared one morning, Detective Dog Nell is ready to sniff out the culprit!
With British Sign Language, creative captions and spoken English, this engaging production celebrates books and the magic of reading in an inclusive and accessible performance.
Expect captivating puppetry; surprising smells and toe-tapping music.
Recommended for ages: 3yrs–103yrs
Supported by Arts Council England.
This dramatisation of The Detective Dog is based on the picture book The Detective Dog © Julia Donaldson and Sara Ogilvie 2016, published by Macmillan Children’s Books.
