Artful Playground brings interactive storytelling for children aged 3-7 years to The Atkinson this summer.
On Wednesday 12 August we meet Lolly. Lolly has dreams of adventure and travel
But when she runs away from the circus to see the world, she encounters a few unexpected obstacles along the way. She soon realises that the circus isn’t so bad after all and wishes she was back home with Pops. But how will she get back? Maybe her circus skills and props will come in handy after all…!
Artful Playground’s interactive musical stories are aimed at children aged 3-7 and for children with special educational needs. Stories are brought to life as the children are invited in to take part and become the characters, sing songs and play games with the story leader.
Musicians represent the characters on different instruments and the story is accompanied by a live musical soundtrack. The outcome is a wonderful mix of fun and learning, as Artful Playground and the children join forces and go on an imaginative journey together!
“An excellent interactive story with added bonus of live music and instruments – the music with the story was my daughter’s favourite part. Great for all ages to take part in together.” (Natalie – Teacher)
“Fantastic engaging music theatre. My 3 year old son absolutely loved it. Thank you very much!” (Kate Breitholtz – Teacher)
