Paper Planet by Polyglot Theatre
Sat 28 Sept - Sat 5 Oct 2024
Enter the captivating and ever-growing Paper Planet. Explore the gigantic cardboard forest and make it grow using only paper, sticky tape and your imagination!
Children and families are invited into this strange and delicate space where theatre and play merge, and creatures, plants, costumes, characters, stories and adventures spring to life.
Paper Planet changes as more families visit, and every session is truly unique as imaginations go wild. Children choose how they interact with the performers and with other children; some children find themselves absorbed in quiet making, and others prefer to play and explore.
Paper Planet is child-led, deeply engaging and sure to delight the whole family.
