  • St Helen's Wood Hastings (map)

An immersive woodland performance for children and their families....

Step inside the world of trees with a playful journey through ancient woodland, led by choreographer Sophie Nüzel. Immerse yourself in a promenade performance where trees have wrinkly grandparents and tree children go to school for hundreds of years!

The Squirrel, the Fox and the Owl will guide you along the uneven paths and through the mature oak trees, pausing to listen to their wisdom. You’ll meet big trees and tiny ones, brave trees and fearful ones and explore the hidden wonders of the woodland.

Perfect for children and their families, this unique experience uses dance and aerial acrobatics, storytelling and hands-on activities to learn about the wonders of the natural world.

Access

Please note this show is experienced by walking through a wooded area and is therefore not suitable for buggies. We advise that younger children who cannot walk independently should be carried in a sling or backpack.

The terrain could be challenging for wheelchair users or people with limited mobility. Please get in touch to discuss how we can support your access needs on 01424 559020 or email office@thebrightfoundation.org.uk
