Read some wonderful show reviews:

'Parents are as transfixed as their children, some of whom are just over a year old. It was not only the most imaginative but the most philosophical piece of theatre I have seen in ages.'
Richard Dyball - The Times

'I can't help but wonder whether Shoe Baby might not turn out to be as resonant and redolent of childhood for this generation of toddlers as the Clangers and Puff the Magic Dragon are for me. It deserves to be.'
Shella Parkin - BBC Southern Counties

'Long Nosed Puppets have created wonderful, magical children's theatre at best.'
Edinburgh Guide

'It's a great, glittery adventure’ Rating 5/5. ★★★★★'
