Shrink Ray: Holiday Program

  • Family and kids
  • Workshop

A full-day writing workshop from a whole new perspective.

In the stillness of the antique attic, the strange gizmo looks wildly out of place. Cautiously, you pick it up and test its buttons - but it shows no signs of life. You place it back on its stand and walk away until – crash! It topples over and a strange, alien humming sound emits, a green light pulsates and – zap! You open your eyes to find a giant chasm at your feet. But it’s not a chasm… it’s a gap in the floorboards. There’s a bridge you can cross. But it’s not a bridge… it’s a pencil. To make things worse, an unholy, giant alien scuttles into view. But it’s a cockroach. You’ve activated the shrink ray!

Welcome to a world through a whole new perspective; where simply crossing your bedroom is a day-long, perilous trek, insects are giant predators and the vacuum cleaner is an apocalyptic black-hole of certain death! The gargantuan adventure awaiting your puny protagonists – well that part’s up to you!

For 8-12 year olds.
