The story of a little girl,

With a big love of the beautiful game

And her Great-Great-Great Uncle,

Who shares the same name.

 

A warm and witty new show for children and their grown-ups about football, team-work and the joy of joining in.

Football Freddie tells the story of Freddie Farren, a little girl who loves football but is too nervous to join in a game in her local park. Out of a magical photograph steps Freddie’s Great-Great-Great Uncle Fred, a real footballer from the olden days. Uncle Fred takes Freddie back in time and they re-live footballing glories of old. With Uncle-Fred’s encouragement, Freddie renews her confidence and enthusiasm and everyone joins in a good old-fashioned kick around.

Football Freddie is a magical new show for children and their families. The production features playful storytelling, friendly audience participation and integrated audio description alongside original sound design and vibrant set and costumes.

Written and Directed by Ruth Cooper and Andrea Heaton
