Little Angel Theatre to Stream Further Two Titles in Jon Klassen's Hat Series PRESS RELEASE LITTLE ANGEL THEATRE TO STREAM FURTHER TWO TITLES IN JON KLASSEN’S HAT SERIES Following the success of Li1le Angel Theatre’s broadcast of JON KLASSEN’s I Want My Hat Back, the theatre are excited to announce they will be streaming performances of the remaining two >tles in the three-book series, This is Not My Hat and We Found a Hat. This is Not My Hat will be broadcast on Sunday 3 May at 11am BST and We Found a Hat on Sunday 24 May at 11am BST. Both performances will be streamed on Li1le Angel Theatre’s YouTube Channel and will remain available for 14 days aHer the ini>al broadcast. Both shows will be free to access. As with I Want My Hat Back, both produc>ons will be directed and performed by IAN NICHOLSON, with set and puppet design by SAMUEL WILDE and music by JIM WHITCHER. Both shows will be created remotely, with the crea>ve team communica>ng across Zoom and WhatsApp over 200 miles apart, and the set posted to Nicholson to rehearse and perform from his living room in lockdown. This is Not My Hat follows a li1le fish who has stolen an even smaller hat from an even bigger fish. But whilst the li1le fish hides himself where the plants are big and tall and close together, confident that he won't be discovered, the big fish is already on his trail. In the final book in the trilogy, We Found a Hat, we meet two turtles who find a hat, and it looks good on both of them. They agree it's not right for only one of them to have the hat, so they must leave it. As the evening con>nues, it's obvious one turtle can't stop thinking about the hat. But what's more important - the hat, or their friendship? I Want My Hat Back was broadcast on Monday 13 April and to date (Friday 17 April) it has had 45,000 views from viewers in over 50 countries. It will be available to watch un>l Monday 27 April. Director Ian Nicholson said: ‘Sam, Jim and I have been blown away by the audience response to I Want My Hat Back. It’s been so lovely to receive messages from families who have watched the show and made their own mini theatres at home. Hopefully by comple>ng the trilogy we will inspire even more young theatre makers. I’d also like to extend a huge thank you to Jon Klassen for being to suppor>ve of this project.’ LiHle Angel Theatre’s ArKsKC DireCtor, Samantha Lane, said: ‘We have been overwhelmed with the response to I Want My Hat Back. I’m so impressed with the work Ian, Sam and Jim have managed to create from their own homes, so it was a no-brainer to ask them to complete the trilogy. It’s been a delight to see so many families across the world se1ling in to watch theatre from their sofas, and crea>ng their own puppet shows at home. Stay tuned for more exci>ng announcements about what we’ve got coming up.’ With thanks to Jon Klassen and Walker Books for gran>ng permission to adapt these works.

  • Teachers' Notes
    WALKER BOOKS TEACHERS’ NOTES @BIGPictureBooks @BIGPictureBooks £12.99 • Hardback • For Ages 4+ • ISBN 9781406395570 @burstofbeaden walker.co.uk WALKER BOOKS TEACHERS’ NOTES THE ROCK FROM THE SKY BY JON KLASSEN These notes have been written by the teachers at the CLPE to provide schools with ideas to develop comprehension and cross-curricular activities around this text at school or in the home environment. They build on our work supporting teachers to use picture books to enhance critical thinking and develop creative approaches in art and writing. They encourage a deep reading of and reflection on the text, which may happen over a series of reading sessions, rather than in just one sitting. We hope you find them useful. These notes have been written with children aged 5-9 in mind. However, this is a sophisticated picture book which has scope for it to be interpreted in different ways with pupils of different ages. It is important that you use your knowledge of the children you are working with to select questions and activities from those suggested that are most appropriate and that best suit their age and emotional maturity. INTRODUCING THE TEXT: . Share the front cover of the book with the children, and encourage them to focus on the illustration of the characters, before revealing the title. Who or what are these characters? What do you think you know about them? What might have brought them together? What do you think they might be thinking about at this point? You could encourage the children to write some of these ideas in thought bubbles around a copy of the illustration.
