Christian Dance Company perform in Woodbridge

There’s a giant coming to town! London-based Springs Dance Company is bringing their unique blend of dance and storytelling to St John’s Church, Castle Street, Woodbridge on Saturday 8th October at 2.30pm and 7.30pm. in a production of “The Selfish Giant”.
 Girl Jump
Based on the much-loved tale by Oscar Wilde, The Selfish Giant is a captivating and inventive show of storytelling and dance. Audiences aged 5 to 105 will love this magical, big hearted production.
 
One day, a Giant returns home to find children playing in his beautiful garden. He builds a high wall all round it, and puts up a notice board saying “TRESPASSERS WILL BE PROSECUTED”. Nobody wants to be with the Giant except the wind, rain and snow, and his garden remains locked in a wintery chill.
 
But one morning as the Giant lies awake in bed, something is different…
 
This exciting, brand new collaboration of theatre and movement performed by a storyteller and four dancers is choreographed by Darren Ellis and directed by Steve Stickley with music by Jeremy Clay.
 
Audiences had this to say about the company’s previous work for this age range and above:
 
“Very impressive” Beatrice, a mum
“Beautifully presented” Irene, a mum
