Stocking Up!

Finally, a pair of socks that you actually want for Christmas!.

make a booking enquiry flying buttressesWhen faced with a staff shortage at the North Pole toy factory (staff don’t come much shorter than elves) Rabbit and Bear rolled up their socks and took matters into their own feet. These intrepid little characters hopped off the assembly line and into two giant Christmas stockings, determined to deliver themselves and find the perfect mantelpiece to call home!

Were you looking for odd socks? You’ve found them!

“They are amazing. The crowds are in awe of them. I’m so pleased I had them first. So clever!”

“It was wonderful having you guys there to showcase your new piece, we all loved it so much.”

Karri Prinn, South Tyneside Senior Events Officer

This festive walkabout act features two cute and fluffy puppet characters. Rabbit and Bear emerge from their Stocking tops and engage the audience in funny, delightful conversations. They spread joy and laughs from their stockings (‘Bobby Socks’ and ‘Stocking Phyllis’) and magically stroll around an event by themselves.

A Christmas themed puppet act starring two adorable teddies in giant stockings – a couple of big softies that want to be everyone’s new best friend. They aren’t all that smart though – but then they literallymake a booking enquiry flying buttresses have cotton wool between their ears!

Illuminated with lights and playing cheerful festive music, this show is spectacular both up close and from a distance. It’s a magical illusion and children are totally convinced that Rabbit and Bear are toys that have come to life before their very eyes!

This puppet illusion is a beautiful act and another totally original street theatre concept from The Flying Buttresses. Brilliant as entertainment for Christmas light switch-ons, as entertainment for Christmas markets, Shopping Centre Christmas entertainment and as an act for festive fairs and illuminated Christmas events.
