NCT presents Miemsie and the very Naughty Lion by Bizzy Hands Puppet Company
Miemsie and the very Naughty Lion is an African puppet show version of the classic, Little Red Riding Hood, from a book by Alex T. Smith. This enchanting production will have young and old roaring with laughter.
Miemsie has to go to grandma’s house. Grandma woke up with Spottelitus! On her way she passes by several of her bush friends including Jimmy the old crocodile, the monkey brothers, Mama Giraffe and her baby Jonty. They all warn her about the very Naughty Lion. When Miemsie finally reaches Grandma’s house, she’s immediately suspicious…. But she can see right through this Naughty Lion’s plan… Miemsie will teach the very Naughty Lion a lesson… African style!
