This interactive SEND-inclusive workshop will be set in Base Camp’s woods, where children and young people will be able to explore different themes of nature. We will enjoy exploring our environment – with all the sounds, smells and textures – along with some arts and crafts before heading into the woods to create and perform our own story with the help of Thunk-It’s brilliant actors, on our woodland stage. 10am-2pm

Booking Required through Base Camp - £25 (includes lunch)


Events:


A poster of Thunk-It's Hansel & Gretel show. The backdrop resembles a green tree, with a pale yellow sun behind the blue and orange text, which reads 'Hansel & Gretel'. At the top of the image small green text, which reads 'With integrated sign' and the Thunk-It logo, which is located at the bottom right of the poster.

Deer Shed (26th-28th July)


Moving through the beautiful Base Camp wilderness, the audience are immersed into Hansel and Gretel's world. With singing, dancing, and things to feel, smell, hear and see - Thunk-It’s ‘Hansel and Gretel’ is a feast for the senses, and gets the audience included in the magic and fun of this classic fairytale story with a twist! 



Come and join Thunk-It’s drop in workshop which will have young people (& grown ups!) creating their very own spoon puppet! You might make a strong princess puppet from a fairytale, or a chomping dragon from mythology. Maybe a cunning knight from the history books, or an amazing astronaut from outer space! Come along and get creative as we bring our puppets to life!
