About this Event

The Edinburgh International Children’s Festival is an annual celebration of exceptional Scottish and international theatre and dance for young audiences.

This year’s programme also features a Focus on Wallonia, that hosts an eclectic children’s theatre scene.

The three productions include:

  • Antes by Compagnie Tea Tree, a tender, playful and acrobatic adventure about all the big, small, scary, wonderful first times;
  • Cheeky Zippy Violette by Théatre des 4 Mains / La Datcha, from sea storms to lunar landings, Violette dives into her wild imagination with humour and tenderness to bring everyday objects to life;
  • Everything/Nothing by Modo Grosso, a gravitydefying object manipulation performance using everyday objects.

The Focus on Wallonia is organised with the support of Wallonie-Bruxelles Théâtre Danse and Wallonia-Bruxelles International.
