Events




DragonBird's 50-minute sessions explore vivid worlds through gentle theatrical play and song for children aged five and under. We run live ticketed sessions for families in Bristol and also come to pre-schools, libraries and other Early Years groups.
Our sessions are all about engaging with immersive stories through theatrical sets, props and characters. But above all, the sessions are a relaxed and inclusive place for little ones and their grown-ups to play, imagine and sing together.

September: Make Do and Mend
Autumn is here and it's time to make do and mend all of our knits for the colder weather. Come and help us sing our way through the mending pile - there's socks to darn, a giant scarf to make and lots of hats to try on.

We’ve been running sessions across the South West UK for over ten years, working to instil a love for theatre, boost motor and language skills and support physical and emotional development.
Our 50 minute sessions support the EYFS structure, encouraging children to participate physically and verbally, sing along, move around and engage with immersive and vivid worlds.
All of our sessions include two performers, set, props, costumes and all materials for games and activities. Download our brochure for more info and contact information.
