A magical cart rolls into Queen’s Market Square bringing playful stories of fate and fortune in this highly visual outdoor show for children and families. 

Inspired by the bustling energy of South Asian street markets, Kismat Walla combines magical puppetry, street theatre and storytelling in a world where fortunes shift, strangers cross paths and anything feels possible.
