Based on a picture book, the tale follows Phoebe, who reads about an exciting creature called a Penguinpig online. She sets off alone to the zoo to search for the adorable creature. But what will she find inside?
Designed for children aged three to eight, Penguinpig is one of more than 160 events at the Brighton Digital Festival, which runs until the end of the month. It is the UK’s largest celebration of digital culture.
Performances of Penguinpig are on Saturday 24 September at 11am and 2pm. The show is 45 minutes, followed by a Q&A with the actors. Tickets are free but should be booked in advance.
