In October 2021 BrokenCrow in association with Garter Lane Arts Centre and The Everyman Presented 
The Little Robber Girl
A limited audio drama series for children with accompanied posted pack,
written and directed by Deirdre Dwyer


The Little Robber Girl’s five episodes were released every morning from Monday the 18th to Friday 22nd of October, just in time for the mid-term break! Ticket holders received a link to the audio series and a posted pack containing five sealed envelopes of beautifully illustrated, specially commissioned cards and story extras inside.
 
Being bad is always good when it comes to Mattie - a thief and a trickster from a notorious family of sea-faring bandits! Never one to do what she is told, right and wrong are not straightforward for a girl like her. But Mattie is also brave and a loyal daughter and this time it’s up to Mattie to come to her family’s rescue. 
 
Join Mattie, her little dog Arthur, and her new friend Finn as they go in search of Mattie’s missing Mammy...and return with much more than buried treasure.
 Let the listening adventure begin!
