The Magic Shoes

BBC Television
on BBC Television

A mime play for deaf children devised by Pat Keysall and acted by members of the Royal National Institute for the Deaf Mime Group.
Stitch the shoemaker was kind and hardworking, but other people always wanted to get his work for nothing. In fact, poor Stitch nearly starved, until one day his money-till started to make magic and then strange things happened to his customers.
Programme arranged in co-operation with the Royal National Institute for the Deaf.
