Recommended for children 7 – 11 years.

A place that can heal and hold you safe. 

A mysterious shop you never knew existed. It pops up exactly when you need it.

Inside are the Makers and Menders. As they work, they joke and sing, play music and tell stories. If you listen hard, you just might hear your story, or one quite like it.

The Make Do and Mend Shop is a place where things get mended and every object brought in for repair has a story to tell. Some are practical everyday tales, some are puzzles and some are curiosities. Other stories take you on a journey and at the end you’re not the same person you were at the beginning. An object is mended and you’ve been changed.

Make Do and Mend captures a bespoke live performance on camera. Integrating music, song, puppetry and creative captions, the show presents a wealth of characters to beguile audiences. Funny, uplifting and lively, with some sad bits too, Make Do and Mend celebrates the power of stories to help and to heal.
