The Velveteen Rabbit

If you remember growing up with the classic story The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams or its inspired film adaptation Toy Story, this interview will set you back in time. This year marks the 100^th anniversary of The Velveteen Rabbit and its fascinating connection to pandemics.

In light of this celebration, Spare Parts Puppet Theatre will put on a show this coming April school holidays – with a production which brims hope, love and adventure. Set to run from April 4^th to 23^rd, The Velveteen Rabbit is an emotional story which explores the special imaginary relationship between a child and a toy rabbit.
