Albert Einstein said:

“If you want your children to be brilliant, read them fairy tales.

If you want them to be geniuses, read them more fairy tales.”

HOW WE HELP BUILD INDIVIDUAL CONFIDENCE IN KIDS


We have only a red curtain on stage but children and adults see everything that is in the scene and, as you can see on this page, the children draw it all and each drawing is different and unique to that single child. Whatever their age.


In this visual age of television and computers that give the viewer everything, watching our shows will develop the child’s internal sight and their imagination.


We take children and adults on a journey into the world belonging to a story, into an unforgettable atmosphere that

can change dimension, shape, location and time in the twinkling of an eye or the turn of a head.


If you want to switch on your imagination and see things on stage that aren’t there, come and enjoy us bringing to life classic tales, myths and legends.


TALES, MYTHS & LEGEND

for everyone aged 4 to 84

“The children who usually find responding to non-visual stimulus difficult, were captivated.”

ACCESS FOR DISABLED CHILDREN

For children who are Deaf or have a hearing impairment:
Our performances do not use recorded or amplified music, sound effects or voices.  All sound is created naturally through voice production.  Our style of performance uses spoken word with stylised gesture (similar to mime) to illustrate the story.  Deaf and hearing impaired children, their teachers and parents always comment on how easy the story is to understand without signed interpretation.

For children with visual-impairments:
Touch tours of the set, costumes and the actors are available on request.

For children with mobility impairments:
Our performances are in traditional theatre form.  The actors perform on the stage and the audience sit in seats or on the floor.  The actors will not ask for audience members to come up on stage or participate in a physical manner.

Do you know the difference between imagination and invention?


They may be ‘siblings’ but, as anyone who has a brother or sister knows, each of us is unique and different. Even twins.
