At Tangled Feet we really enjoy visiting schools and connecting our work with the fantastic imaginations of children.

We create all of our performances for young people with adaptable and easily mountable designs and portable sound and lighting rigs, meaning the performance in the school can have the same high production values as in a theatre. Over recent years Need A Little Help, Butterflies and Belongings have toured for children aged 2-13 in schools from Cornwall to Birmingham, Kent to Dublin and are available to book.

Alongside this, we regularly create original shows and performances alongside pupils and university students. In our process, we treat the young people as artists and collaborators, and support students to  create in a team alongside professionals to make something that is rooted in their ideas, voices and experiences.

Wow! I cannot express what an impact Belongings had on our children and staff. This is especially so for the children we have in care. They were bursting to tell us how they related to the characters and it has enabled them to communicate with their teachers and friends about their home situations more openly

There was so much joy at the end, and the children loved the chance to get up and join in with the people they had been watching. Thank you for giving us such a remarkable starting point for discussing what could otherwise be a very difficult subject.
