Who believed the crazy contraption would actually work and launch him 800,000 years into the future?! He finds a race of cute creatures the size of teddy bears, frolicking through a dreamlike paradise. Everything seems perfect... or is it? In the shadows, pale eyes watch him and creeping feet disturb his sleep. In the future, monsters are very real indeed.

Returning to Bruton their performance of The Tale of the Cockatrice in 2018, Mumblecrust reimagine Wells’ thrilling Sci-Fi classic with lashings of humour, award-winning puppetry, music and storytelling.
