Kaleidoscope Productions

Arabian Nights

In February 2013, we performed our visually stunning show, Arabian Nights. Sheherezade’s tales were brought to life by a cast of ninety children. Our innovative production inlcuded Physical Theatre, Clowning, Farce, Arabian Dancing and Shadow Puppetry. Every child in Kaleidoscope was involved in the show - from our Infant Drama and Dance Classes, who performed a story about a lion who was tricked by the animals, to our Juniors who performed Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, up to our talented Youth Theatre who performed a hysterical rendition of The Beggars Tale. The production was written and directed by our artistic director, Deirdre Daly and choreographed by Beth Dale, with lots of creative ideas added in by the children in all our classes during the devising process.
