The Wall: Theatre By Kids, For Kids

  • Family and kids
  • Theatre

Welcome to the wall. On either side live kids who have never met, but have spent a lifetime whispering ancient secrets, recipes, and instructions for living through the gaps. Something wild has torn through one side (the other side) taking homes, treasures, and a whole festival with it.

That's why you're here. Step into this curious world where things seem upside down, but maybe that's the right way up. Bring your kindness, your imagination, and your making hands, because we need your help to put things back together.

The By Kids for Kids Ensemble are a group of 9 to 12 year olds who have been working together to design and host this arts experience just for you.

Presented by ArtPlay with House of Muchness.

Age: 5 to 10 years
Please ensure your child is within this age range.

Children must be accompanied by an adult for the 5 to 7 year old sessions.
