Two unlikely friends – the speedy, confident Hare and the calm, steady Tortoise – meet for the greatest race on Earth. A race filled with suspense, surprises and a nail-biting, medal-winning finish. Ready… Steady… Is it time to GO?

This playful and imaginative adaptation of Aesop’s classic fable is brimming with fun, live music, unforgettable songs and delightful characters who learn that slow and steady wins the race.

The story unfolds across the seasons – from the blossoming days of spring, through the fun of summer, to the icy sparkle of winter.

Guided by our storyteller, this heartwarming tale explores patience, friendship, and what it means to grow up.

Hare and Tortoise is a Tutti Frutti production.
