Ever wanted to control what happens in a cartoon? Now you can in this fun-filled experience for the whole family – there’s no such thing as too much joining in

Join adventurer, fearless inventor and connoisseur of carrots, Walter Lemonface as he hunts for Rhubarb Ogres, battles ghosts and finds a new adventure around every corner.

Older than the hills around him, Walter lives in a purple shed at the bottom of a waterfall. He will tell you that he’s been everywhere, met everyone and he saves the world at least once a week. But remember, not everything Walter says is true. Oh, and he has a yellow head that looks like a lemon.

“Loved the interaction and live music.”

 “Inventive, creative, inclusive… Really lovely idea!” 

Sometimes scary, often touching and always with a healthy sprinkling of silly, you control what happens next and then watch in amazement as your story unfolds…

A magical mix of live animation, music and storytelling for children aged 3+ and their grown-ups.

The Adventures of Walter Lemonface comes to The Atkinson on Sunday 5 June. Tickets are £8 (£6 children, £24 family). To book your tickets please visit theatkinson.co.uk or by call 01704 533 333.

About The Atkinson

The Atkinson is Southport’s beautiful new home for music, theatre, art, poetry, literature and history, right in the middle of Lord Street in Southport. Significant investment has been made in refurbishing the stunning 19th century buildings, to create a really welcoming multi art-form venue with a strong contemporary feel.

The Atkinson offers an exciting and varied destination for families, cultural tourists and arts enthusiasts alike, with a full day and night time offer. Wile the day away visiting the new shop, that sells gifts and contemporary crafts from regional makers and then relax in the Bakery, choosing from a selection of artisan bread sandwiches, cakes and sharing platters. You can even take little bit of The Atkinson home with you from the delicatessen. Wander through the major exhibitions and see performances from some of the UK’s foremost musicians, actors, performers and companies, films, family activities and much more.

The new Museum is now open. Sefton Between Land & Sea tells the story of Southport and Sefton as well as the area’s dramatic maritime history. While Discover Ancient Egypt – the new Egyptology Gallery is the home of the  Goodison Egyptology Collection, a remarkable collection of archaeology that has not been seen for over 40 years.
