It was a real honour to host not one, but two performances of 'A Child in Striped Pyjamas' at Gosforth Civic Theatre. It was a moving experience for the cast and audiences alike. Thanks to everyone involved in making this possible!

"An intense and beautiful experience; the sizeable audience was mesmerised" - thanks to Dora Frankel Choreographer, educator, ecofeminist for this great review of 'A Child in Striped Pyjamas'. Read the full review on the British TheatreGuide website: britishtheatreguide.info/reviews/the-ch…

At Brundibár Arts Festival, we're passionate about bringing music into the community for everyone to enjoy. Here we are at Philip Cussins House care home. We had a wonderful time meeting the residents there and sharing some music - thanks to everyone for such a warm welcome!

Another key element of Brundibár Arts Festival is music education. As part of this year's festival, we headed to The Glasshouse International Centre for Music to give masterclasses to young musicians. It's always such a privilege to pass on knowledge and help to inspire the next generation!
