TOASTies feat Mark Grist

This October we are putting on a show like no other, we will playing games and performing poems about all our favourite books!  Award-winning poet Mark Grist will take the audience on an adventure through all our favourite story-worlds, sharing the magic of poetry in this fun show.

TOASTies is the live, interactive poetry experience for kids and families! Brought to you by TOAST, the best poetry producers in the business, we bring the coolest, craziest kid’s poets to Norwich for an afternoon of fun, games and rule-breaking.

TOASTies is aimed at 5-11 year olds but is suitable for younger or older siblings as well. We always want to make an experience rather than just a regular show, so audiences are encouraged to get involved as much or as little as they choose.

Tickets: Pay What You Can (£2.50, £5.00, £10.00)

Age Guidance: 5+ (younger siblings also welcome)
