Book your Tickets to The Smeds and the Smoos at London's Lyric Theatre
The award-winning team behind ‘Zog’ and ‘Stick Man’ brings another Julia Donaldson & Axel Scheffler classic to the stage. Two families of far-flung aliens—the red Smeds and the blue Smoos—have feuded since the Big Bang. But when young Janet (a Smed) meets Bill (a Smoo), they zoom away on a star-speckled adventure, proving that colour is only skin deep.
Why Little Astronauts Will Love It
• Catchy songs: Composer Joe Stillgoe packs the 55-minute show with toe-tapping lunar lullabies.
• Epic puppetry: Glow-in-the-dark starfish, orbiting comets and a giggling moon create a pop-up picture book in 3-D.
• Perfect length: Under an hour, with no interval to break the spell.
• Interactive moments: Kids help pilot the rocket, count shooting stars and learn an alien handshake.
Inclusive & Relaxed
Select performances are relaxed and audio-described. Booster cushions, buggy parking and child-friendly snacks make the Lyric Theatre experience stress-free for grown-ups.
