  “Once there was a boy and one day he found a penguin at his door.

     He didn’t know where it had come from or who it belonged to.
     The penguin looked sad and the boy thought it must be lost.”

    But no one seems to be missing a penguin. So the boy decides
   to take the penguin home himself, and they set out in his rowing
    boat on a journey to the South Pole. But when they get there,
     the boy discovers that maybe home wasn’t what the penguin
                         was looking for after all.

     From the bestselling picture book by award-winning children’s
  author, Oliver Jeffers, this simple story of true friendship comes to
  life with puppetry, songs and music. The perfect treat for a younger
         audience - suitable for ages 3+ and their grown-ups.

   Lost and Found is brought to us by the company that brought us
   the sell-out productions of The Owl Who was Afraid of the Dark,
     Duck in the Truck, Dotty the Dragon and The Magic Toyshop.

GET INVOLVED
AND VOLUNTEER TODAY!
Our theatre venue relies on you, our audience, to help support
and run this wonderful performance space.
We require assistance in the following areas:

FRONT OF HOUSE STAFF AND BAR STAFF
(ALL SHOWS)
Be the face of Simply Theatre! Front of House volunteers are at the heart of Simply Theatre, helping
create unique experiences for our audiences and ensuring the smooth running of our productions.

PRODUCTION SUPPORT
(ACADEMY SHOWS)
Whether it be helping behind the bar, sewing costumes, lifting scenery, applying make-up or helping
share literature to promote our shows, we would love to hear from you! Theatrical experience would
be wonderful, but no prior experience is necessary. It is a great way to meet new people, try a new
skill and if your child is in a show, then to be a part of the theatrical experience with them!

ACTOR ACCOMMODATION
(PROFESSIONAL SHOWS)
Do you have a spare room and are you close to good public transport links? If so, you might consider
hosting our visiting professional actors and creatives.

THE PERKS
All volunteer roles come with great benefits such as free tickets, complimentary programmes and
discounts across our season and at the theatre.
Please email productions@simplytheatre.com with VOLUNTEER THEATRE ROLE in the tile to
register your interest and for more info
OUR AGE RECOMMENDATIONS
For your convenience, we have rated each of our productions over the season to help
you choose which shows are suitable for you and your family. If parents, guardians or
teachers would like more specific guidance on the content and suitability of Individual
Simply Theatre productions, please call 022 860 05 18.
