Ruby's Worry

Ruby had always been happy, perfectly happy…. until one day…. she discovered a worry…

Ruby tries and tries to get rid of her worry, which grows bigger and bigger! Eventually she meets a boy who has a worry too. Together they discover that everyone has worries, and that if you talk about them, they never hang around for long!

Told through live music, song, puppetry and physical theatre, Ruby’s Worry takes the audience on a delightful musical adventure.

Based on the book Ruby’s Worry, written and illustrated by Tom Percival and published by Bloomsbury. The show is ideal for children aged 3 – 7 years and their families/schools.

Ruby’s Worry toured to libraries across Nottingham, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire in June 2024 and will be available for national touring in autumn 2025 and spring 2026. The production was shortlisted in the Excellence in Primary/Early Years (Music and Drama) category in the Music and Drama in Education Awards 2025.
