Squidge is Tiggy Bayley’s debut one woman show.
It follows Daisy, a reluctant teaching assistant, as she is assigned a young Irish traveller to help with his reading. Amid phone calls with her grieving mother, a sexy plumber and whale noises, she finds hope in an unlikely friendship.
Directed by Selwin Hulme- Teage, Squidge is a brilliant but devastating one-woman show about those left behind by our education system and the politics of love and hope.
She’s shorter than 5ft and funnier than a 10ft badger. She’s got more energy than a Duracell bunny. It’s that Bradford Pocket Rocket: Kat Rose-Martin.
Strap in, cause this is a whistle stop tour in the multi-verse of Kat’s mind with short comedy sketches featuring a collection of chaotic characters. She’s written for the BBC, she’s performed at Shakespeare’s Globe, now she’s bringing a little bit of lighthearted silliness and daft laughter to Leeds.
In this fab and fun adult workshop you’ll create either a charm necklace or keychain from polymer clay!
You can let your spooky mind run riot and craft a ghost, a bat or a witches hat!
With careful guidance from polymer clay artist Georgia, you'll be shown how to attach the findings for a necklace or keychain and you'll be able to customise your spooky charm using acylic paints and Posca pens.
Whilst your charm is baking (to harden the clay), you will get to decorate your own miniature ghost sculpture which has been pre made by Georgia!
