Rebel Sparks: Take Flight

16th May
Attenborough Arts Centre, University of Leicester, Lancaster Road, Leicester, LE1 7HA

Take Flight is a stunning aerial theatre show for -2 year olds and their grown ups.

The story follows a musical mother bird as their baby hatches, grows and explores, navigating the challenges of hunger, sleep and play. Culminating in a beautiful aerial moment the mother bird supports her baby to leave the nest & take flight.

This multi-sensory, interactive show ignites the imagination and curiosity of babies who are then invited into the
space with the performers to explore the baby safe set and props, including having a swing in the silks.

We worked with development psychologist Dr Valentina Sclafani from Lincoln University to ensure the content is positive for babies in terms of neurological & motor skills development & encourages a strong Bond between babies and their grown ups.

This show is 35 min long, plus a 15 min stay and play.
