Paddington's First Concert and The Owl and the Pussycat

Join Paddington Bear on a magical musical adventure perfect for families with children aged 3–8! Follow Paddington as he arrives in London, meets the Brown family, and shares delightful escapades—including dancing a Hungarian dance with Mr. Gruber and visiting the grand Albert Hall.

Next up, The Owl and the Pussycat will be brought to life with live classical music, charming puppets, interactive storytelling, and a sprinkle of silliness! This engaging performance invites young audiences to embark on a magical journey alongside the beloved characters as they set sail in a beautiful pea-green boat.
