WATCH Icarus plummet to the sea – aka a bucket of water – after flying too high in Ancient Greece
LAUGH with the San Bushmen’s story of the Honey Bird

CREATE a Song in our Playshop and sing it in the show
MAKE a feather bird and watch it fly
LISTEN to real bird song, which is your favourite?
CATCH a flying puppet!
