For little ones, a visit to the Festival this year could well be their first trip ever! All shows have been carefully selected for very small people - performances are all fairly intimate, with children sitting on benches or cushions, close to the stage and performers. Some even have the opportunity to interact and play on the set after the show for a full immersive experience.
