Based in the traditions of fairy tale, The Red Dress is a story about a young girl’s journey into adulthood and her changing relationship with her mother. This magical story is brought to life as the pages of a giant book unfold, performed by actors working beautiful, small-scale puppets and props. An intimate piece of theatre featuring a stunning set and choreographed to an evocative soundtrack, The Red Dress is a timeless tale of growing up with a surprise on every page.
