Following on from their hugely popular family shows Ned and the Whale and The Curiosity Shop, Flossy and Boo are back with their unique, magical and bizarre brand of storytelling.
There are very many things we are told when we’re young, but The Ramshackles were misfits, not ordinary, not one!
They missed the talk on how to grow up, on how to sit still,
or drink nicely from a cup.
Their adventures took them to faraway places,
with tangled hair and grubby faces.
A trip to Egypt,
A picnic on the moon
Digging to Australia
With a small wooden spoon
Full of music and mayhem; join The Ramshackle family for a whirlwind adventure!
This is a free event to see the first stages of a work in progress. We would love your ideas and feedback to help shape this brand new piece of work and be part of its creation.
Audio description is a live commentary interspersed with the actors' dialogue. This is relayed via a headset linked to the infra-red audio system. There is a short 'programme notes' session, before the production, which explains the atmosphere, costumes, characters and action.
BSL
British Sign Language Performance
Signed performances are ideal for those who use sign language. Trained British Signed Language (BSL) signers usually stand to one side of the stage and interpret the script used by the performers at the same time as it is being performed.
R
Relaxed Screening/Performance
Open to everyone, but particularly appropriate for anyone who may find the usual theatre/cinema environment challenging, due to an Autism Spectrum Condition, a learning disability, or a fear of the dark, loud noises or confined spaces.
Relaxed Performances/Screenings provide a relaxed environment, where elements are adapted to reduce anxiety or stress. Lighting and sound levels are adjusted to soften their impact and there is a relaxed attitude to noise and leaving and re-entering the auditorium during the performance/screening.
Designated 'chill-out' areas are provided outside the auditorium with activities for people to use if being in the auditorium becomes overwhelming for them.
T
Touch Tour
A Touch Tour is ideal for blind and partially-sighted audiences to familiarise themselves with the set ahead of the performance.
C
Captioned Screening/Performance
Captions display dialogue on-screen (similar to subtitles) and also describe the audio or sound portion of a film/performance allowing audience members who are D/deaf or hard of hearing to follow the script and the action of the film/performance at the same time.
For live performances, the screen is positioned at the side of the stage.
