The capital of Afghanistan is rarely out of the

news these days, but this children's theatre show by innovative and inspiring Catherine Wheels Theatre Company will cast it in a different light. The tale of Marjan, a lion who spent over 20 years in Kabul Zoo despite war raging all around, is a remarkable one. Performed inside a purpose-built structure, it takes children aged eight and over on an unforgettable journey where film, live music and theatre come together.
