Join three wee butterflies on a daring adventure around the garden in this magical, musical adaptation by beloved storyteller Susi Briggs.
When a few gentle raindrops turn into a blattering thunderstorm, three butterfly friends are separated. They'll need courage, kindness and a little advice from Cat, Bird and Puddock to find their way home.
Songs, laughs and fluttery fun for children aged 3 and up and their grown-ups in a spell-binding show about friendship.

Drookit! was a rehearsed reading for children and their families.
Our rehearsed reading of Drookit! by Susi Briggs took place at the Theatre Royal Studio in Dumfries in April 2025. Our goal was to make a Scots language play about friendship, courage and inclusion for young people aged 3 and over to enjoy with their families.
Twenty-two children came to see the play, along with parents, teachers and nursery staff. Drookit! was part of Unlocking Scots, Braw Clan's development programme funded by the National Lottery.
We tell spell-binding stories,
in your village hall.
You know how almost no plays in Scots are put on in Scottish theatres?
Well, what Braw Clan does is make new theatre in Scots, inspired by the people of Clydesdale, and we tour it to rural communities in the south of Scotland. We bring world-class performers and powerful local stories to your village hall so you can enjoy them with your family and neighbours.
In fact, someone who came to a Braw Clan performance said “After watching the play, I feel re-energised about my village and sharing our stories."
