An image of Four performers up two ladders that are leaning together to make a tower. There is a performer balancing in between them and two performers are holding on to the outside whilst another performer holds the structure up. They are all looking in different directions. There is a large and colourful bookcase in the background.

Tit for Tat present BOOKS!

Save the books! A joyful, hilarious adventure for all the family.

Four bedraggled book enthusiasts are travelling from town to town – forced between the margins – on a mission to protect literature. The libraries keep closing, and their beloved books are being forced out into the streets… where the rain is heavy and the sun is getting hotter!

As the last surviving members of their rather intensive book club, they must embark on a quest to recruit more radical readers to their cause. Without new members, the book club and the books it has sworn to protect, will surely perish!

These Hardback Heroes can’t let such a tragic epilogue come to pass…but they need you. Yes, YOU. You can already read – so we’re halfway there.

What we love about BOOKS!

Tit for tat are highly trained chaos makers, with characters you’ll root for and juggling and acrobatics to take your breath away. Your sides will hurt from laughing and you’ll want to cover your eyes and peek through your fingers.
