Arts & Kids Week Events - 29 Oct 2009
1. Horseplay at Brighton Dome Pavillion Theatre, Brighton
![]() |
Do you like horses? Ever been inside a real stable? Step through the barn doors and see what adventures you can create...
The Horseplay stable is a magical interactive space packed with horse-themed treasures to support children's imaginative play. The children enter the stable where the creative fun kicks off with a special 'pony-tale'. The children can move about, play, build dens, groom the horse puppet or simply investigate their surroundings. With the aid of light, sound, props, and saddle-bags of creative exploration, their 'free play' becomes the performance. While the horseplay unfolds, delighted parents/carers can watch the action from a safe distance before joining the children to share their discoveries. |

3. Happy Halloween Pumpkin Carving at Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art, Gateshead
![]() |
Anjali is a girl who has moved to the UK from India. An aspiring dancer, Anjali travels between two worlds: the cold reality of life in the UK, and her imaginary world of colourful animals from the Indian fables of The Panchatantra.
In her struggle to be proud of who she is, it is the richness of her culture, the strength of her family and the gifts of imagination and dance that enable Anjali to find the courage to be herself. This is a vibrant fusion of theatre, traditional Indian and Western dance, puppetry and music. |
