Them with Tails

Two actors perform on stage, one wearing a rooster hat with a playful expression. A sign with the word "TAILS" is partially visible in the background.

Two unlikely tales – and one impossible one…

Take two preposterously funny chaps. Add two improbable tails and three stories from around the world – one created live from audience suggestions in an impossible act of on-the-spot invention.

With a background in street theatre and at storytelling festivals across the country, network of stuff and Tall Stories bring tales (and tails) of increasing improbability to life for audiences aged 5 to 105.

With a brand-new story created live every day from audience suggestions, you can be sure of something a little out of the ordinary. Expect evil badgers, talking teapots, trolls, peacocks and monkey horse riders alongside hilarious physical performance, original music and lots of laughs.

Them with Tails toured the UK in 2006 and 2007 and was revived as the seasonal Them with Frozen Tails for Christmas 2009 and 2010.

If ‘Them with Tails’ were any more fun, it would probably be outlawed.

Two performers on stage act animatedly against a dark backdrop. One wears a rooster headband, the other has a tail. Both exude comedic energy.

A real tour de force.
