Join Blue Elephant Theatre in Burgess Park on July 25th and 26th!

We're marking the start of the summer holidays with two days of creativity! Our festival features some of our favourite performances, alongside drama and crafts workshops run by our facilitators.

The festival will be near the tennis courts in Burgess Park. (Click here for a map, or use WhatThreeWords light.gasp.ally)

Performances include:

Ana & Silly - a interactive show for young children about transitions and friendship. Ana the Squirrel is not happy to hear that she will be starting school tomorrow - that will upset her whole schedule! Luckily, Silly the Squirrel is on hand to make her feel better. There will be three performances of Ana & Silly on Friday 25th July, including one in Spanish.

The Storytelling Wizard - Alchemise Theatre bring their improvised children's theatre show to Fun in the Park on Friday 25th. Inspired by their audience's ideas, they create original performances on the spot, full of joy and fun.

Way Back When - a short play about the Windrush Generation. Meet Grandma and Alex as Grandma relives some of the memories of her youth. Way Back When has been performed dozens of times to hundreds of people since it was first created for Black History Month 2019. Offering the chance to join a game of cricket, hear an Anansi story and dance like you're at Carnival, it's perfect Saturday afternoon enternatinment.

It's a completely free event, funded by Southwark's Cultural Celebrations Fund.
