A promenade show for families produced by The Place and presented for the first time in The Pirate Castle in Camden Lock. The project includes half term workshops at the Pirate Castle for local young people to make sets for the piece.
Embark on this interactive subterranean journey through different sounding environments enriched by a theatrical “sound hunt” as a map, a golden thread, and a sleeping monster inspire you to explore the alcoves, tunnels, and boats of the Pirate Castle.
Join Hide&Seek for drop-in games through the day – modern re-imaginings of parlour games dating back to the seventeenth century! Chance, chasing, and chanting all play their parts, with different types of game throughout the day – each one taking no more than ten minutes to play. Games are suitable for all ages.
Madaleine is a Camden based experimental performer, director and photographer working in Camden. In contrast to our increasingly digital approach to photography; this workshop is an opportunity to rediscover the darkroom and experiment with this enchanting photographic process. Using handmade pinhole cameras and taking advantage of the long exposure times, the participants will collaborate to create a series of unique, ghostly self portraits.
Soundcastle is a pioneering Camden-based arts collective who create new music through diverse collaborations. They will be running a music workshop and collaborative performance for families at Coram’s Fields. Anyone is welcome to join with instruments and voices to make a spontaneous musical composition inspired by the place, the people, and the moment.
Join UP Projects’ The Floating Cinema and artists Tracy & Hobbs at King’s Cross’ Granary Square Steps for a day of ‘Water Folk’ activities as part of the Camden New Wave Festival. Take a close look through microscopes and magnipots at the cornucopia of fascinating creatures you can dip direct from the canal with artists Tracy & Hobbs. Observe these creature’s movements and shapes from their hidden world as never seen before; magnified onto our custom built cinema screen or projected bank-side after dark and see if yours is the catch of the day!
