The Bookbinder
- Lemon Tree
Overview
‘They say you can get lost in a good book. But it’s worse to get lost in a bad one…’
From award-winning company Trick of the Light Theatre comes a story of mystery, magic and mayhem. The Bookbinder weaves shadowplay, paper art, puppetry, and music into an original dark fairytale in the vein of Neil Gaiman. With awards around the world including Best of the Fringe (NZ Fringe 2014), International Excellence Award (Sydney Fringe 2014), and the Children’s Theatre Award (Fringe World, Perth 2015), The Bookbinder is an inventive one-man performance for adults and children 8+.
