A Pinocchio Adventure! What happens after Pinocchio becomes a real boy? Or a real person rather, as the cast of “A Pinocchio Adventure” refer to him at their all festive, fun and immersive theatrical experience for children aged 5 and over this Christmas season?! Well, you can find out at The Garage this December as this sequel version, produced by the team behind the “My First…” productions (of which they also have an offering for pre-schoolers – read more about […]
My First – The Night Before Christmas! The My First production of the season, The Night Before Christmas has launched and is now in full swing until December the 31st at Norwich venue The Garage (a stone’s throw from Chapelfield Gardens) where your little ones can enjoy perhaps their first taste of live theatre in an immersive production which, as they always offer, a setting which is inviting, non frightening and doesn’t mean they have to sit on their bottoms […]
Into The Snow Globe At The Garage Norwich – A My First Production! The second show in the Imgaitorium at The Garage this festive season launched last night with Into The Snow Globe, an interactive, immersive theatre experience for babies and children up to the age of 5. All In Productions kicked off their double offering with Operation Save Santa, aimed at a slightly older primary aged audience last week and we loved it. This week it’s back to their […]
Operation Save Santa At The Garage – Norwich! In typical me and my disorganised style I rocked up to the preview for All In Productions “Operation Save Santa” at The Garage in Norwich with quite the wrong children for the performance. You see, they are gifting us two this year, this one, which is geared up for 5-10 year olds, and a “My First” production (if you’ve been to their offerings before like the panto or Shakespeare then you’ll be […]
Stick Man Live 2022! We’ve been to see Stick Man Live a LOT of times, but we would always, always, ALWAYS go back because we love it SO much! I remember going with friends when the big two were tiny and they said they could totally imagine they’d still be seeing this show even when the kids were grown up and didn’t want to go anymore. To be fair, I can’t imagine anyone growing out of it so I suspect […]
Little Manfred At The Polka Theatre – Wimbledon! It’s been many years since we went to the Polka Theatre, more’s the pity but I feel soon I shall have to rectify this. I used to take the big two when they were little all the time, not because Wimbledon was close to where we lived, far from it, but because it was always so absolutely excellent that it was worth the journey across London and venturing south of the river […]
What’s On For Kids At Norwich Theatre Royal! What you’ll notice about Norwich in general is that these days we are really excellent at arts for children. We have theatre in both performance to watch and be a part of, in abundance and for that I’m incredibly grateful. When I was growing up here it was really only the Norwich Theatre Royal who provided any kind of drama classes and performances (aside from the Puppet Theatre but that was slim […]
Moon On A Stick’s Jack Frost At Norwich Theatre Royal! Starting this weekend at Norwich Theatre Royal’s Stage Two, Moon on a stick Productions brings Jack Frost to life! An alternative pantomime option for younger children is this charming show which uses puppetry and music to tell their enchanted story. aimed at children aged 3+, with a shorter running time than a traditional theatre production at just 45 minutes and it sounds like a perfect introduction to festive theatre and […]
The Thursford Christmas Spectacular And Enchanted Journey Of Light 2021! All year round Thursford Steam Engine Museum is just that, a wonderful museum of steam engines which is well worth a visit but… Making like a caterpillar for 10 months of the year, come November, the butterfly of Thursford emerges from a chrysalis and it is now that she truly comes to full her full potential! If you’ve not seen the Thursford Christmas Spectacular before then you’ve missed out for […]
Cafe Royal Norwich At The Theatre Royal! This morning the girls and I tripped into the city for a catch up with our friends at The Theatre Royal Norwich who have, over the past couple of months, been soft launching their newer, shinier and more friendly cafe. The Royal, where all day long, with or without theatre tickets, you can enjoy their delights, has officially opened today and we were treated to some of what’s on offer! Pastries and cakes […]
