ALL THESE THINGS WE CAN MAKE
An audio piece for families to explore together.
We’ve created an adventure to do from the comfort of your home. All these things we can make is an invitation to make and unmake all kinds of things with the objects around you as well as with your bodies - joyful, giddy, thoughtful all rolled up together. You will be offered audio instructions woven together with infectious, playful music.
Accompanying the audio is a complimentary activity pack, which is full of a variety of additional things to make, to do, to try out, and to talk about. Dip in and out of the pack and explore the activities from home as well as outside in your local area.
Families and Children: Age 4+

This work was commissioned by Sadler’s Wells for their Digital Stage 2021.
It is loosely based on previous company work, Is this a Waste Land? (2017) - a performance through headphones for disused urban spaces.
