There's magic and mayhem in the rainforest! Animals homes are at risk as bulldozers and diggers crash their way through trees and foliage. Who will come to the rescue and fight the evil Endorro? Can we save the rainforest?

The Lost Forest takes a vital concern and turns it into a fun and dynamic show, using Wayang Golek (colourful rod puppets from West Java), stunning rainforest projections, shadow theatre and original music.

"Excellent, full of magic and wonder, very cleverly presented and extremely entertaining"

Book an exciting workshop with the show and learn more about the plight of the rainforest! The performance supports national curriculum targets especially relating to science (shadow and light and puppet mechanisms), geography and environmental issues.

Bookings for this show are being taken for 2006, 2007 and beyond. It is also available as a double bill with The Worm That Squirmed, another hugely popular Indigo Moon show featuring Indonesian rod puppets, which has successfully toured since 2002.
