Step into a world of wonder where the stories you thought you knew are transformed. This immersive exhibition invites families to wander through deep dark forests and royal palaces, sit at the Three Bears' breakfast table, and discover the secrets of wicked witches and genies. Featuring a blend of theatrical design and beautiful artwork, it’s a journey that celebrates the spellbinding power of imagination.
From puppets and costumes to rare books and pop-ups, the exhibition showcases the UK's most beloved writers and illustrators. Whether you’re meeting three little wolves or a princess who refuses to go to the ball, this interactive experience is packed with surprises, story-sharing spaces, and activities that will captivate both children and their grown-ups.
