The show invites adults with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD) into the audience to go on a fantastical journey told through music, costume and props from designer Hazel McIntosh and lighting from Carly Altberg.
BEAT-FLYS invites the audience to take on the main character role on a fantastical journey. Pushed out of Bow, East London, audiences meet an angry Evil Butterfly, determined to trap them in their cocoons. Fortunately, An Angel Old Woman comes to the rescue and leads the audience on their way to meet the Love Dragon in their safe refuge.
And before it’s time to head home, the Party Panda is there to celebrate (possibly a bit too hard).
