Benjamin Pollocks (1)

Put on a Show

Known in Victorian times as Juvenile Drama, toy theatres were originally made as souvenirs of live theatre, creating an ideal home entertainment. The Pollock’s Toy Theatre has inspired generations and long been a part of Britain’s theatrical heritage. Today they commission contemporary illustrators to add to the traditional collection.

A great toy theatre for kid's is Pollock's magnectic toy theatre, as well as the Peter Pan Shadow game which allows you to bring the classic story to life in a new and beauiful way.
