A NEW children’s festival is continuing this week with a range of theatrical events for all ages.
On Saturday, South Street is the venue for The Artist, an interactive art gallery where each painting is a world to be explored, and works can be stepped into.
It’s suitable for ages three and up and takes place across the day.
On Wednesday, June 1, it’s the turn of Palaver Party, for ages three to eight: a glittery, colourful space to allow children to be free. It includes music, costume making, party games, and a rainbow disco. It takes place from 2pm and tickets cost £14.
Swings And roundabouts is a comedy music show on Thursday, June 2, from 11.30am. Tickets cost £10, and the show is for new parents and their babies. It is a celebration of the highs and lows of parenting, through songs, laughter and more.
Bucket Club’s Catch That Beast! Is on Friday, June 3, and performed across the day at South Street.
The show follows the Royal Society of Beastologists as they try and track down the Fearsome Beast of Reading … but they need your help. Tickets cost £10.
The week of fun ends on Saturday, June 4, with a performance of The Council of the Birds by Bee In My Beanie.
Taking place at 11.30am, the show is inspired by an epic Persian poem, and follows a girl’s journey across oceans and mountains to a place beyond time and the bird gather just once a year. Tickets cost £10.
