Take Flight - May Half Term


  • Corn Exchange Auditorium
  • Adult and Baby £20  / 
  • Additional Adult £10  / 
  • Additional Baby £7.25 (including booking fees)
Two performers in colourful costumes hanging on silks, one is playing a ukelele.

Take Flight is a stunning aerial theatre show for 0 - 2 year olds and their grown ups. 

The story follows a musical mother bird as their baby hatches, grows and explores, navigating the challenges of hunger, sleep and play. Culminating in a beautiful aerial moment, the mother bird supports her baby to leave the nest and take flight.

This multi-sensory, interactive show ignites the imagination and curiosity of babies who are then invited into the space with the performers to explore the baby safe set and props, including having a swing in the silks on the Corn Exchange stage.

They worked with development psychologist Dr Valentina Sclafani from Lincoln University to ensure the content is positive for babies in terms of neurological & motor skills development and encourages a strong bond between babies and their grown ups.

Our 10 month old was just mesmerized and her attention was held the whole way through (which is a miracle in itself)
