A celebration of Bagpuss on his 50th Birthday!

With the delightful and musically brilliant addition of Nancy Kerr and James Fagan, Sandra Kerr presents a live show of the music and songs and some of the stories from Bagpuss.

In the early 70’s John Faulkner and Sandra Kerr were asked to write the songs and music for a children’s TV series called Bagpuss. Twelve 15 minute programmes of animated puppets based around a legendary fluffly cat called Bagpuss and created for the BBC by the masters of animated puppetry at the time; Oliver Postgate and Peter Fermin.

The series ran and ran, was hugely popular and was repeated for over a decade. So much so that twenty years later Channel Four bought the rights from the BBC for another ten years.

In Britain it was voted the ‘best children’s TV show of all time’. In a new international listing of the greatest TV cult series ever made, compiled to mark the release of the reference book “The Penguin Television Companion” it was voted 20th being beaten by the likes of “Doctor Who”, “Star Trek”, “Monthy Python” and “The Simpsons”.

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.
