About BOXVILLE

We loved all of it, who knew cardboard could be so theatrical!

Audience Member

Join Designer Sam Wilde and Director Ian Nicholson (I Want My Hat Back Trilogy) on their next cardboard adventure. Using their trademark sustainable cardboard puppet style explore BOXVILLE, a land made entirely from sustainable cardboard!

Work with the BOXVILLE engineers to craft-a-long with the story and build your own way through the tasks and trials of BOXVILLE, earning everything you need to become a fully fledged cardboard engineer!

You will meet paper dragons, corrugated crabs and cardboard space robots in this STEM skilled, hands on, interactive, cardboard adventure!

All cardboard creations can be taken home at the end of the show.
