"The Children's Festival is simply the UK's best event of its kind".

"Each and every child
was totally involved in the play which was so
simple but pitched just at their level. Our
nursery, was filled with laughter, clapping
of hands, quiet reflective moments and wonder!"

The
End Of Everything Ever
Agata
is 6 years old, and she is going to the railway
station with her father. He smiles at her
and seems very happy but Agata has the strange
feeling that she will never see him again.
The train journey is long and tiring and Agata
is getting very hungry. Without thinking,
she begins to chew on the paper name-tag around
her neck and, with every clickety-click of
the train wheels on the rails, she very slowly
obliterates her name and address. She becomes
a child with no family, no name and no way
to find her home again – so who is she
then?
Accompanied by live music, The
End of Everything Ever draws on true
stories and accounts of the Kindertransport
– 10,000 Jewish children who were
saved by their parents’ decision to
send them out of Nazi occupied Europe. The
award-winning NIE shine a light into some
of our continent’s darkest history
and emerge with a story of survival, love
and hope.
