About this Event
The Mountain Witch
An adventurous tale from Speedwell Dance of seasons gone awry, an ancient and
powerful witch and the determination of children to put things right. The
Mountain Witch invites children into a vibrant, immersive experience where they
can awaken scampering creatures, tiptoe past the Mountain Witch’s cave, and
ultimately convince her to let the sun return. Join musicians and dancers in this
playful and inclusive experience for children aged 3-8 years and their grown-ups.
With inspiring dance, songs and original music played live on clarinet, flute and
cello, this performance promises to transform each performance space into a
magical realm.
“Speedwell Dance’s amazing performers wove spells as powerfully as the
Mountain Witch did. No child could resist being drawn into their playful,
interactive & joyous world.”
“My face ached from smiling so much.”
“The way the performers wove the kids ideas about Spring into the piece was
incredible.“
“The look on my daughter’s face when the witch got her to stand up and hold the
snow fabric, I’ve never seen it before, it was just pure joy.”
