RoguePlay, Birmingham Videos

It never gets old hearing that #RoguePlayForests has given people pause for thought! 💭 "Delivered with passion and vitality, excellent work being undertaken with a strong message. I left asking questions [and] had a strong visual metaphor to add to the undeniably strong reasons to call a halt to such small-minded short sightedness." Thank you for the kind words, Fringe Review. 🙏 Read in full here🔻 https://fringereview.co.uk/review/fringereview-scotland/2024/forest/ ----- #fringereviewuk #cumbernauldtheatere #fringereview #rogueplayuk

For those that didn't get to catch our #TentedTalk at Glastonbury on Friday, here's the key thing we wanted audiences to take home with them... 👇️ Accessibility and inclusivity in circus arts (and the arts in general!) is SO important. Not just for Millie, but for EVERYONE, regardless of their age or abilities. Representation matters. Seeing yourself reflected on stage matters. And Kim was so proud to be championing that crucial message alongside the talented Monique & @Karina - the audience response speaks for itself! 🙏❤️ ----- #GlastonburyTentedTalk #InclusiveCircus #AccessibleCircus #CorneliaDeLangeSyndrome #CircusatGlastonbury
