East London Dance, Sadler's Wells

There was once only the sound of bees and the wind in the wiry grass, the low murmuring of moles in the cool dark earth, and the song of birds in the high blue sky.

Varmints tells the heart-warming tale of one small creature's struggle to preserve a world in danger of being lost forever. Every day the city grows larger and the noise grows louder, until there is so much noise that no-one can hear themselves think.

Highly original hip hop dance theatre for young people, choreographed by B-boy and Sadler's Wells New Wave Associate Wilkie Branson, in collaboration with children's theatre director Sally Cookson. Based on the award-winning book by Helen Ward and Marc Craste.

There will be a free interactive post-show discussion after both performances.

Ages 7+

Presented by East London Dance, Sadler's Wells and Stratford Circus.
