Come join us for a magical dance, music & storytelling show in Oldham by Spin Arts, produced in partnership with Gypsy & Traveller Youth to celebrate Gypsy Roma Traveller History Month.

Queenie is a Traveller girl with a wild imagination. She dreams of exploring the world as a famous dancer and musician, telling tales of traveller folk through her talents. Unfortunately for Queenie, her parents don’t approve.

Little does she know, a shape-shifting Pooka is trapped in the trailer – and this mischievous faerie has plans for an adventure. This mesmerising tale uses dance, music and object theatre to capture the imaginations of big and little kids alike. With heartfelt insight into Gypsy Traveller culture and lifestyles, Queenie and the Pooka is a story of acceptance and following your heart.
