Early Weaves
Saturday 11 July, 11:00am and 1:30pm

A dance-theatre performance, combining sound and play to explore imagination and curiosity.

A heart-warming tale of friendship, creativity and play. Two friends embark on a journey using fabulously flexible willow. Exploring sound and movement, they create magic and laughter and invite the audience in to play. Early Weaves is a wonderful, non-verbal introduction to dance theatre for early years children made almost entirely from willow, a fully compostable, carbon-sink material.

“Incredible actors, very friendly and interactive with the kids. Loved the idea of the show because it sparks children’s creativity and my 3y old daughter was so excited to play with the props after the show ended”

Chameleon Quartet
Saturday 4 July, 11:00am and 1:30pm

Hey Presto!

Join us on an adventure through a magical forest as the Chameleon Quartet introduce and spotlight each of their 13 woodwind instruments. Dispersed between imagination evoking music are fun activities for children to get involved with, including soundscapes, rhythm building and conducting.

“Watching Chameleon is such a positive family experience. The ladies are so friendly and passionate about music and have a lovely way of bringing their musical instruments to life through storytelling.”
