Frogs in Bogs / Brogs y Bogs is a fun, outdoor, interactive, bilingual musical show for primary school aged children and their grown-ups, that’s guaranteed to make you croak out load.
Superhero, fugitive frog plumbers invite families across Wales to join them in their mission to crack a clogging crime and defeat the evil duck, Cwac Ty Bach. After being locked up for a contamination crime they didn’t commit, the frogs escaped to the city sewers and are solving pollution problems wherever they go.
This hilarious, all-jumping, all-dancing show provides a ribbiting day out of all the family, with banging tunes courtesy of new music from talented Cardiff art-rock musicians Heledd Watkins and Sam Roberts (HMS Morris).
The froggy fun-fest is perfect for children aged 4+ of all abilities and presented both bilingually and Welsh only,Frogs in Bogs / Brogs y Bogs is a great introduction to theatre for young people. Familia are promoting sustainability and the importance of looking after our environment, aiming to make the costumes and set out of 70% recycled materials, including a giant fish intricately crafted from plastic bags.
This blockbusting show will be sure to delight families in unexpected places across Wales this summer. The ambitious amphibians are a cold-blooded lot so audiences can expect the show to go on come rain or shine (there are indoor alternatives available for each venue).
Created by award-winning Carmarthenshire-based theatre company Familia De La Noche, with music by Heledd Watkins and Sam Roberts (HMS Morris), the show is supported by the Arts Council of Wales.
