Dig out your snowshoes for an Arctic Adventure with live music and songs, 3D and shadow puppets, creative captioning, integrated sign language and song, plus the cosmic brilliance of the Northern Lights. Set somewhere north of the Arctic Circle, Soonchild is the story of a shaman known as Sixteen Face John who feels out of step with the modern world. John’s wife is expecting a baby, but the Soonchild refuses to be born until she can hear the World Songs - special music that is essential for the world to exist.
THEATRE / DISCUSSION
£6
On at 1.00pm, 3.30pm and 6.30pm - 90min show. This is an invitation to help build the People’s Palace of Possibility: to discover distant utopias, air your frustrations and fears, and to take action to realise a better - or at least less bleak - tomorrow. Part performance, part installation and part conversation, this is an uplifting and collaborative experience designed to question what is possible and how we might get there.
FAMILY / THEATRE / MUSIC
£12 (£10)
A flap-tastic family comedy. With frolics and foraging, flitting, flying and two unusual feathery friends, this is a madcap and touching show about birds facing changes to their habitat. The Bird Show uses music, puppetry and lots of silly bird jokes in this heart-fluttering physical comedy about conservation, migration and imagination.
