Storytelling, Puppetry

Telling the Bees

Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2026

(Fri 7-Tue 11 Aug)

On a blustery hilltop, a girl has a big secret to share. Following an ancient tradition, she must "tell the bees" that everything has changed. Step into a world of silver-saddled kelpies, mischievous brownies, and the beautiful song of the selkie, as award-winning Hoglets Theatre brings folk legends to life.

Packed with gorgeous puppetry, original music and a hive full of interaction, Telling the Bees is a warm, witty, and imaginative show for ages 5+ about brave hearts, new beginnings, and the magic we carry with us.
