The Unexpected Gift

This highly interactive and inclusive dance-theatre performance is made esoecially for and with children with complex needs such as autism ages 6+. Playfulness within the work creates space for live response between the audience and performers, with its adaptable approach allowing the individuality of each child to be celebrated.

The Unexpected Gift celebrates the art of the play and curiosity, taking ordinary objects and making them extraordinary and magical. Burtsting with energy, acrobatic dance, textures, sounds and colour to create a multi-sensory wonderland from the left-over boxes, ribbons and wrapping. 

The Unexpected Gift is designed for a small audience to be able to accomodate and engage young people who experience the most barriers to access.

 

The Unexpected Gift is co-produced by Capital Theatres and Barrowland Ballet. It was inspired by Barrowland Ballet's production of The Gift, a co-commission by Aberdeen Performing Arts, Capital Theatres and Eden Court, Inverness funded through Creative Scotland's Performing Arts Recovery Fund.
