What to expect
A perfect daytime activity for under-5s
Get inspired by beautiful, imaginative performance and play
Bring your little ones along to Matson Library for a morning of unique paper performance and play.
Penguins, monsters, the sea…if you can dream it, Takeshi and friends can make it and bring it to life – just from paper!
Enjoy a gentle, creative performance with live music to fire up your imagination. Then get stuck into the giant pile of scrunched up, torn and folded paper for yourself 🎉
Stay and play afterwards, too!
⏰ 45 mins long, plus stay and play afterwards
👶 Ideal for under-5s but suitable for older children too
😌 Relaxed performance – get up and move around whenever you need to

Practical details
The event lasts about 45 minutes – and you’re welcome to stay and play after that.
We want anyone to be able to come along – so we’ve made the tickets pay what you choose.
A performance like this would often cost £7-£12. But we don’t want people to miss out because of price.
If you can’t afford anything at all, we’d love you to come along for free. If you can comfortably pay more than the suggested price, please consider doing so – generosity is good for everyone. Whatever your situation, we want you to be welcome. There are no favourites at our events: you’re all family to us 💖
