The Star Seekers
Return of the delightful astronomical adventures for ages 3-8, staged by Bristol’s ever-inventive Wardrobe Ensemble.
Have you ever dreamt of flying to the moon? Visiting a space station? Becoming an astronaut? Join The Wardrobe Ensemble on a journey through the stars – and one where you take the steering wheel.
From our review of the show last year at the old Wardrobe: “a uniquely collaborative adventure in which many of the story’s twists and turns and supplied by the audience members and improvised, with impressive creativity and quicksilver pace, by the three-strong cast.
is needed now More than ever
“We land in strange worlds whose landscapes and inhabitants are comically otherworldly (again, thank those young imaginations for this); we experience bewildering changes in speed and gravity; we feel the vastness and limitless fascination of space – all of this created via some vivid imaginations, some top-notch improvisational skills and plenty of dextrously-created props.
“Children with even a modicum of interest in the great unknown up above our heads will get pulled into the irresistible gravitational field of this beautifully wide-eyed, enthusiastic and good-humoured show. They’ll also take away the satisfaction of having helped to shape its journey across constellations of possibility.”
Feb 16-22, 11am & 2pm, £8/under 3s free.
