Are children and adults all that different?
When I went to see Fevered Sleep's The Forest, I got a bit obsessed with the little gold nuggets that run around the floor - I had no idea how they worked. That fascinated me.

If I was 5 years old, I think I'd say the same thing. Except I'd probably point and use my facial expressions to describe how I felt instead. Which is actually… Continue

A blog post by Samantha Butler was featuredOn encouraging young audiences (or their parents) to take risks
http://www.itstheforest.comWhy should parents bring their children to see something like my company's dance piece 'The Forest'?When it’s half term and I scan the pages of the ‘what’s on for children’ sections of magazines I want to know that the experiences I choose for my children will be, to be honest, worth the effort, that they will enjoy it, that they will be enriched in some way, in any way, by what they’ve seen.I want to take them…See More
