Shabang’s Summer Work
Not only do we run regular activites and sessions at The Chapel but we also go out and about performing for other organisations and at other events:-
CastleFest – a day-long interactive performance and parade at Castle Hill School involving all the children and staff
Bradford Portage Picnic – participatory performance for children and their families
The Childen’s Biennale – Magnificent Me – invited to take part in the programme of events in Huddersfield town centre with a participatory performance for children and their families
IncludFEST 2022 – we will be performing for the second time at this festival in Durham in collaboration with Tin Arts in early autumn
