Info
For three joyful days in October, babies, toddlers and their families are invited to join us in Crosby Library to explore matrescence, motherhood, parenthood and all the new experiences that unfold when a new baby enters our lives.
Hurly Burly Theatre Company return to the library for the premiere of their After Party Playlab, an interactive installation for babies and grown-ups to explore through live music, song, movement and play.
As well as the Playlab, you'll find a programme including live music, shared reading, zine-making, somatic movement, aromatherapy and conversations celebrating the unexpected elements of motherhood.
For new parents, old parents, grandparents, carers, friends and the community around them, the festival aims to illuminate the joyful, hardcore, exhausting, kick-off of care and the messy, gritty, mosh pit of motherhood.
