Unexpected Twist is a re-telling of the Charles Dickens classic, Oliver Twist, by one of the best-loved figures in the children’s book world, Michael Rosen. Combining two stories in one; Rosen’s new tale alongside the Dickens classic that inspired it, Artistic Director James Dacre (Olivier Award-nominated Our Lady Of Kibeho) and designer Frankie Bradshaw’s (Two Trains Running) production brings to vivid life the worlds of both Shona and Oliver as their stories twist together, unexpectedly! Adapted for the stage by BAFTA award-winning playwright Roy Williams (Soul, Sucker Punch) with original music by rising R&B star Yaya Bey and BAC Beatbox Academy’s Conrad Murray, Unexpected Twist is a thrilling new production from the producing partnership behind Holes and The Jungle Book that will tour the UK following its Northampton premiere. Unexpected Twist has choreography by Olivier Award-winning Arielle Smith (Jolly Folly), musical direction by Conrad Murray, lighting design by Rory Beaton (Death Drop), sound design by Leigh Davies (Matilda) with casting by Annelie Powell CDG. The creative team also includes Sarah Stacey (Associate Director), Gurkiran Kaur (Voice Coach) and Kate Waters (Fight Director).
Do you squish or squash, tickle or most certainly not, handshake or hug, stretch out or snuggle in like a bug? Squidge is a fun interactive dance film with music and digital projection, which takes a light-hearted look at our sense of touch and how it influences our everyday lives. At the heart of the film is a tale of friendship, compromise and how each and every one of us need touch to make us feel alive! Immerse yourself in this shared experience for children 5 – 9 years and their grown-ups. Sit in your own special seating area where you can explore magical light-up boxes, full of exciting textures for little hands which will delight and tickle your senses. Each family (maximum of 2 adults & 3 children) will be seated in their very own interactive seating area, which will magically light up at moments throughout the cinema experience and will be full of exciting textures for little hands to explore! Expect slimey fun and lots of bubbles… Squidge is produced by Wriggle Dance Theatre, in partnership with Birmingham Hippodrome and The Core at Corby Cube with support from Arts Council England.
Time To Share is the perfect activity for children of all ages and their grown ups! Each month we will focus on a new theme and each week we will focus on a new book. There will be a mixture of fiction and non-fiction books with matching crafts or activities! This is a free drop in event.
