Little Terror
Event details
Sunday 16 November
Little Terror is an imaginative, interactive and adventure-filled family opera all about finding inner strength and processing your emotions, made with and for Learning Disabled audiences.
It’s Alex’s birthday, but she does not want to go to her birthday party.
To get there she has to go through the front door, to the deep puddle at the end of the street, past the scary school gates and by the boring playground with the parents who never do anything fun. And she has to wear her dreaded pink dress, which is no good at all. Alex wants to be a knight, and knights don’t wear pink dresses…do they?
Sung in English with English captions for those with access needs and so that audiences can sing along.
Tickets: £12 adults and £8 for under 18s.
Start Time: 10.30am
Running time: Approximately 45 mins
Perfect for ages 3 – 7 and Learning Disabled audiences.

Are you worried about bringing your child to the performance? In Little Terror performances, audiences are able to move, vocalise, tick, stim and react to the piece freely. If audience members need a break, they are welcome to leave the performance and come back at a later point. We ask that parents and carers take responsibility for the safety of those in their care.
