Show Name: The Zoo That Comes To You
"The Zoo That Comes To You" follows the impassioned attempts of two animal enthusiasts to share their love of and concern for animals with the world. They take in animals that need respite, care or a temporary home and have, accidentally, ended up with a whole sanctuary, but with no visitors! So everybody – animals and humans alike – have decided it is time to get out, see the world, and bring the zoo, to you. Come and meet this eclectic group of charming yet cheeky animals, as they discuss their life experiences and the challenges they face in a rapidly changing world. They have a lot to say and want to inspire people of all ages to take action, because they know small actions can make a big difference in the world. Featuring puppetry, live music and playful characters, Scarlet Oak Theatre invites everyone to join the conversation about animal conservation. Running time 60mins. Suitable for ages 5+ but we welcome younger audiences and unaccompanied grownups.
Performer Name: Scarlet Oak Theatre
Jasmine Orchard and Lucia d’Inverno met when training at Circomedia: centre for Contemporary Circus and Physical Theatre and have since trained in clowning with Ecole Phillipe Gaulier. Both artists bring to the company their experience from working in a variety of educational settings which has highly informed their practice in creating work for young audiences. With their separate careers in acting, puppeteering, directing and producing, they have come together to form Scarlet Oak Theatre, a company committed to making theatre that is exciting, accessible and engaging for children and their grownups.
