Told through live music, song, puppetry and physical theatre, Ruby’s Worry takes the audience on a delightful musical adventure.
Touring Inspire Libraries in June 2024
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!
Based on the book Ruby’s Worry, written and illustrated by Tom Percival and published by Bloomsbury.
Created by MishMash Productions in partnership with Nottingham City Libraries. With support from Inspire: Culture, Learning and Libraries; Leicestershire Libraries and with funding from Arts Council England.

MishMash Productions’ vision is to transform perceptions of what classical music could and should be, particularly for young, school and family audiences. Their mission is to introduce and expose every child in the UK (no matter their socio-economic background) to live classical music via experiences where they feel welcome, and where they can enjoy and engage with the music.
