This group discussion on 18th February raised a lot of issues familiar to us all but also some interesting questions and opportunities.  We covered a lot of ground - the main points are outlined below. Ticket pricesAs we all know it doesn’t stack up.  The cost of staging work (staffing/production costs etc) is the same for as work for adults but the box office yield is lower.

Watch with baby performances

I took my daughter to Polka Theatre for her birthday to see James and the Giant Peach along with a group of under 5s to a watch with baby performance. It was really interesting to see how the very young babies responded to the show and to experience the dynamic of an audience which included babes in arms.

Engaging younger audiences

 Hello to all,As I continue to write I find there are two opposing ideas for creating theatre which engages younger audiences.
