About our theatre residency days

These immersive, interactive performances are an invitation for families to join us for the day to enjoy and take part in a sensory story with characters, puppets, music and song. The children and young people attending are encouraged to make choices throughout the day to develop and impact the storyline of the performance. 

To ensure that the young people are able to fully engage and interact with the story we invite a maximum of 4 families to each performance day.  

The day will be split into two acts with a break between where families and carers can eat some lunch and mingle in Curve’s cafe.
