Review: The Three Bears, Half Moon Theatre - Everything Theatre A subversive, but joyfully anarchic remix of the Goldilocks story, celebrating chosen families through inventive physical comedy, tender chaos and theatrical flair.

#Review: The Three Bears, HalfMoon Theatre β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

"This is bold, generous, wonderfully odd family theatre – a queer, playful remix that celebrates the messy truth that β€œjust right” doesn’t always look the way tradition tells us it should."
