Perform in the Park - magical children’s theatre in the heart of London
Children’s drama school Perform is embarking on its first ever children’s theatre festival this summer in Coram’s Fields, Bloomsbury.
The six-week festival includes four musicals, two of which are original productions, with shows running daily from 22nd July to 28th August. The line-up includes The Three Billy Goats Gruff, a smash hit musical adventure for 2-7 year olds. For 3-8 year olds, Elephant and Piggie’s “We are in a Play!” will be staged, based on Mo Willems’ wonderful books. Perform’s brand-new Caribbean adventure, Mermaids & Pirates, will be presented for ages 4-11. Finally, for ages 7-14, another original show from Perform, The Dream, inspired by Shakespeare’s
A Midsummer Night’s
Dream, rebooted for a new generation. As well as these four fantastic musicals for children aged 2-14, there are evening events for teens plus a charming all- day café and, of course, all the usual child-centred delights of Coram’s Fields.
Tickets start at £14.50. Visit performinthepark.uk for more information and to book tickets.
