What show will you help to create during the London Summer Camp?

The Steadfast Tin Soldier (Director: Anthony Underwood, Musical Director: Barnaby Southgate, Choreographer: Tali Foxworthy-Bowers)

Based on the fairytale by Hans Christian Andersen about a toy tin soldier, our version is a modern retelling set in a city on the brink of collapse. The protagonist is a deaf soldier, separated from his love, who is the ballerina from the original. It’s a story about what it means to be heroic, with a contemporary musical-theatre score.

Whilst all of our camps are inclusive, we specifically want to welcome participants with additional support requirements and/or disabilities into this summer camp, as it will explore these lived experiences and will bring young people together to explore the material and how to tell the story through non-verbal languages.
