Confessions of a Teletubby

Arguments and poo! Sex and swearing! Blood, sweat, tears and giant rabbits! Life on the set of Teletubbies might not be as you imagined…

Selling out at Fringe 2023, Confessions of a Teletubby is a revealing peek behind the scenes of a global TV phenomenon.

Nikky Smedley was the O.G. LaaLaa for six years – that’s a lot of custard for a grown woman to get excited about!

Hear how she dressed as a table to get the job; what it was really like inside those Tubby suits; how the NooNoo worked and why children loved the show so much.
