Based on the popular children’s book, travel to Kenya and follow in Handa’s footsteps as she journeys to see her best friend Akeyo in the next village.

Carrying seven delicious fruits, Handa meets seven hungry animals who can’t resist the ripe red mango and sweet-smelling guava.

A blend of physical performance, puppetry, live music, and song combine to create an intimate, magical production.

This play is based on the original book Handa’s Surprise, written and illustrated by Eileen Browne. Published by Walker Books Ltd.
