Adapted by Brendan Murray from the much-loved Aesop’s Fable, the show takes the audience through the seasons to witness an exciting race between two competitors who couldn’t be more unevenly matched. Who will win – speedy Hare or slow Tortoise?

Directed by Cheryl Govan, the theatre's associate director (young people and community), the cast features professional actors Max Runham as Hare and Ceridwen Smith as Tortoise alongside community actors Ruby Hilton and Georgia Mason.
