QUIRK THEATRE & EXETER PHOENIX PRESENT: MARY, THE PIGEON WHO NEVER GAVE UP

High above the English channel a small bird battles against the wind. Visually beautiful, heartfelt and uproariously funny, Quirk Theatre return for their 19th Christmas show – and this one is set to be their best yet!

Mary… tells the astonishing and true story of one very special local pigeon, who flew top secret messages home from France in World War 2.

Quirk are known for their inventive and innovative approach to live theatre, wowing audiences with their use of projection, puppetry, creative set design and original music. Essentially simple, beautifully effective and brilliant fun, Quirk Theatre deliver an exciting, engaging and magical experience for all.

A perfect Christmas treat for all the family!
