BIG FISH, LITTLE FISH

(Theatre Severn, Mar 31)

The Big Fish, Little Fish crew are bringing their award-winning, critically acclaimed family rave to Theatre Severn for a 'Carnival' themed family rave! Designed to be as much fun for adults as children, Big Fish Little Fish is social, creative, anarchic, daft and a lot of fun for all!

DJ Gershwin (Suntribe Records/House of God) will be bringing the tunes to the multisensory dancefloor with club visuals, glitter cannon, bubbles, giant bouncy balloons, free glowsticks, transfer tattoos, a face painting stall, and topped off with the famous parachute dance.

The children can get busy in the craft area making themed crafts, be artistic on the giant colouring mural, and creative at the playdoh table. There is a baby safe space with soft mats, ball pool and inflatables, and a toddler play area with tents and tunnels. Fancy Dress theme is "Carnival" – optional but very much encouraged! Rave On!

nTickets cost £10, £7 for children – call 01743 281 281 for more details.
