The Berry Theatre's autumn season begins with the return of popular interactive storytelling series Saturday Storytime on October 3rd, with following dates on 11th November and 2nd December. As always, tickets are priced at just £3 for both adults and children, and the whole family is invited up on stage to participate in interactive story time with musical storytellers Kate the Hedgehog and Craig the Fox in a series developed to inspire children's imaginations.
