WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
Our Name
Born out of the pandemic, Hello Little People started its life on the Isle of Man in July 2020.
Our name “Hello Little People” is inspired by the magical ‘little people’ that are said to live on the Island. When you cross the Fairy Bridge, you must say ‘Hello’ to the ‘'little people’ or you’ll have bad luck.
Hello Little People is evolving to make theatre and develop projects that inspire young audiences nationally and internationally.
