Half A String present The Puppet Van Presents: Space Chickens

Earth’s unlikely hero: an adventurous chicken who is blasted into space to solve all of our planet’s problems. Sounds ridiculous? Not for our heroic hen who will boldly go where no poultry has gone before…With stunning puppetry and live original banjo synth music follow this rocket-fuelled tale all on top of a van. Join us, for an intergalactic adventure from the hen house, to the milky way.

Suitable for all the family and is aimed at ages 5+

Local Kent based (and University of Kent Alumni) Half A String create, explore and share spectacular worlds to get lost in using transforming sets, intricate detailed puppetry and live atmospheric music.  Half A String have performed at bOing! previously with The Puppet Van: The Lost Colour, Breathe, BEE and Save the Lyma Birds!

ART31

ART31 takes its name from Article 31 of the UN Convention on the Rights of a Child, which states that ‘Children have the right to relax and play, and to join in a wide range of cultural, artistic and other recreational activities’.

ART31 is a vision created with, by, and for young people in Kent, championing the belief that all children and young people have an entitlement to access high quality arts and culture, to empower them to achieve their creative potential, and to genuinely engage young people as equal partners in any decision making that affects them.

The ART31 Youth Board is made up of young people from across Kent aged 13-25 who steer its governance, and influence policy and practice across the county and beyond, challenging the creative sector to examine existing ways of working and integrate young people into the core of their practice.
