“I hope loads of other schools throughout the North East and beyond get to experience this theatre company”
About Us
We are a theatre company producing sensory and immersive theatre experiences for young people with learning disabilities. We are based in North East England and currently engage with our audiences through partnerships with SEN schools, community organisations and cultural venues across the region.
We combine sensory play with storytelling, music, puppetry and a touch of magic to create immersive theatrical worlds that create space for meaningful connections with our audience. Over 3 years we have built a programme of sensory theatre shows and sensory storytelling sessions available for our audiences.
Our belief is that arts and culture is a fundamental right and need for young people with learning disabilities. Art connects all of us to the world, each other and ourselves and is a powerful tool for self-expression, communication, learning and improved health and wellbeing.
Our mission is to create better access to the arts for young people with disabilities, so that every young person that we work with has an opportunity to engage in a high quality arts experience. We achieve this through engaging young people in a co-creative process to make each show that we make.
