The Magic Faraway Tree is the first part of The Sleeping Treelogy, originally devised in 2009, the show is what started the company's stripped back, rough and ready approach, and has been at the heart of the trio''s style ever since.

 

The show tracks the journey of an unfortunate young hero, Dick, and his quest to save his ill-stricken and swiftly depleting mother, however, things aren't that easy when a homicidal maniac rules the land where his mother's medicine lies. The show is an adaptation of the original novel be Enid Blyton in which every soldier, saucepan and sardine is brought to life in a fast-paced, farcical and particularly inaccurate rendition.
