Wonder Gigs - music for you, play for them.
Wonder Gigs is a series of family friendly, live events for music-loving grown-ups and little ones aged 0-4.
Each themed session includes toe-tapping, acoustic covers of well-known pop, rock and folk tunes from a live, professional musician. At the same time, experienced play facilitators will ensure that your little one is well catered for with props, puppets, bubbles and gentle child-led play.
Aimed at 0-4-year-olds, these sessions offer you a chance to unwind and play with your little one in a welcoming and relaxed space.
Dancing, moving and singing along is fully encouraged.
This show is part of our Big Dreams Festival. More information here.

The Sticky Dance
Three dancers shimmy through the audience weaving a tapestry of sticky tape in this tactile dance performance for young children. They invite you to tape, stick and groove, to see and feel sound or to be still, watch and listen. Audiences are encouraged to explore freely, choosing how they engage, and turn the rules upside down.
The Sticky Dance is an interactive, engaging and colourful performance installation for children and their families.
The Sticky Dance is open for 2 hours for each performance. We recommend you spend approximately 45 minutes in the space, although you can choose to stay for longer or less. Please book one of the entrance slots available every 15 minutes. The first 2 slots have a lower capacity, for children who might prefer a gentler start.
Second Hand Dance return to Polka after a sell-out performance at Big Dreams two years ago.

LàQua
LàQua is a little chant that echoes from the mother’s belly. It’s the sound of the first element that accompanies, protects and cradles intrauterine life - the song of the first journey that a newborn makes. A small hymn to life, to the water that accompanies it.
Born of the idea that even a small baby is able to explore the world with their senses, LàQua explores these senses, language, understanding and memory using polyphonic song and rhythms of the first sounds. The title is a sound composition of the word "water" and refers to a baby’s first vocal explorations.

Kaleidoscope
Blink. Blink again. What do you see?
Day by day your world is filling up with colour, little one.
Reds and blues, yellows and greens. Twinkling lights that glisten and gleam.
Your reflection is staring back at you. Wide eyed and full of hope. Mirrors, lights, colours and sounds. The world is your kaleidoscope.
Inspired by research into how a baby’s sense of sight develops and how they instinctively begin to categorise colour, watch as a multi-coloured kaleidoscope is brought to life for you and your baby.
