Tangled Feet and Rowantree

Belongings

We are all trying to work out our story. Who are we? How are we shaped? Where do we fit in? 

Cleo arrives into a new home, unsure of what the future holds. She meets the playful Bertie, who brings her out of her shell, and Leila, who she has more in common with than she first thought.

Life has been unsettled for the trio: Bertie is pushing towards the future, Leila is trying to reconnect with her past and Cleo is searching for answers.

Together they balance, dance and climb to navigate imagined worlds, divided loyalties and loved ones far away. They unite to discover a place called home, the value of play, and together, learn how to own their own stories.

Developed through working creatively with young people in care over a period of years, this “inspiring, engaging, beautifully evocative production” (Everything Theatre) explores a fundamental need we all share – the need to belong.

For ages 7 – 11


Stay and Play | Saturday 22 February

Join us for Stay and Play in the drama studio from 12pm – 2pm (after the first show and before the second). These drop-in sessions are relaxed and give audiences the opportunity to be playful, creative and explore the themes of the show further. There are always lots of fun craft activities, reading corners and chances to dress up!

Reviews

'Highlights the importance of play as a positive force: a means of self expression, for learning, companionship, challenge and teamwork'

Everything Theatre

'It’s brilliantly done, managing to be extremely relatable for children with no experience of the care system while giving them a rare insight into the reality of life in foster care'

The Family Stage

'It’s deeply inventive, and the children in the audience were engrossed throughout'
