There is a gap in provision for C&YP facing barriers to stimulating & accessible theatre designed for their needs and disabilities. 99,000 children use hospice services across the UK (Together for Short Lives 2024); and over 1.2 million pupils in England have special educational needs. (gov.uk 2025). Feedback shows that children with complex needs crave artistic interaction, but audiences tell us they can rarely/never access this kind of specialised work in the heart of their community.
We provide high quality, interactive theatre-based events tailored to our audiences, meeting them in the places they feel safe and comfortable: in hospice play rooms, school halls and classrooms. Our tours reach historically underserved communities including boroughs with limited cultural infrastructure. To remove all barriers, we offer these shows for free, fundraising throughout the year to pay our workforce fairly and keep production values and content of the highest quality.
