The Playground Tour

We are bringing two fantastic dance shows directly to playgrounds, festival and events this summer!

Now in its sixth year, The Place will bring two inspiring and entertaining dance shows for children directly to primary school playgrounds in a 50-minute double-bill. PRISMA by Rotem Weissman and BUG by Lea Anderson will get young audiences dancing in their seats and all the way home.

PRISMA by Rotem Weissman

A weird and wonderful dance show for young audiences.

Inspired by children’s books that open doors to fascinating worlds – from the wild imagination of Where the Wild Things Are, to microscopic universes, to the metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly – Prisma translates stories, images, and characters into irresistibly fun movement.

BUG by Lea Anderson

Created in collaboration with choreographer and performer Lewis Norman and composer/musician Steve Blake, design by Simon Vincenzi.

We present - for your entertainment - the spectacular street dances of our awesome insects. Featuring, The Crunchy Cockroach, The Mesmeric Mantis, The Handsome Honeybee, and The Heavenly House Fly!

Brought to you by your buzzin’ hosts; ’BUG’ the drummer, and ‘GUB’ the street dancer.
