Who's that scurrying and squeaking in the shadows? No, it's not a mouse, because Ed Robson's vividly imagined storytelling isn't based on Clement Moore's much-loved 19th-century poem. Instead, Robson has rifled through the pages of our favourite fairy tales and distilled ten of them into one fast-moving piece of superbly realised physical theatre. And it's the physicality – the lovely use of mime techniques, the hints of buffon-clowning and wittily choreographed movement – that allows the narratives to flow without the disruptive palaver of scene changes and copious props.
