LET’S was contacted the Vancouver International Children’s Festival about our low sensory services.
About Vancouver International Children’s Festival:
“The longest-running professional performing arts festival for young audiences and the first of its kind in North America and Europe, the Vancouver International Children’s Festival presents the world’s finest music, theatre, dance, puppetry, acrobatics and storytelling, as well as creative arts activities for the entire family. Families come from near and far to experience this extraordinary annual arts festival created specifically for children and families. We are dedicated to providing creative, diverse programming that engages and delights our young audience.”
LET’S provided low sensory items, including stim toys, colouring materials, stuffed animals, blankets, and other materials for 5 days of the Children’s Festival. The Children’s Festival already had a few supplies but wanted to ensure they made the most of their low sensory area. Following the festival, they donated their supplies to LET’S, which we very much appreciated.
Performances that included the low sensory space included:
Sing along with one of Canada’s best-loved children’s singers and four-time Juno winner Fred Penner at this year’s Festival! Fred has been charming audiences for over 40 years with catchy songs that speak to the wonder of childhood, such as “The Cat Came Back” and “What a Day.” Fred’s award-winning music and meaningful lyrics have created a lasting impact that crosses generations.
Flying bunnies, speeding French fries and identical twins?! This show has it all and then some! The Kif-Kif Sisters’ surprising blend of comedy and audience interaction is enough to make vegetables explode!
Producing Company: Little Onion Puppet Co.
