With breath-taking puppetry, live folk music and projection, uncover the mysteries that keep this little globe turning.

Imagine a whole world no bigger than a house, yet it is the centre of a galaxy.

Tiny Planet carries echoes of The Little Prince, inviting you on a journey to explore how we all can sometimes feel impossibly small and infinitely gigantic.
