Plastic Drastic Fantastic (7+ years) by Akademi

Plastic... is it friend or foe? Remarkable or rubbish? Helpful or harmful?

Polka joins forces with award-winning South Asian dance company Akademi to present Plastic Drastic Fantastic, a new dance show exploring our complex relationship - from the molecular to the planetary - with all things plastic.

Through dance, intricate movements, play and lots of audience interaction, Plastic Drastic Fantastic draws on stories and ideas from children and young people, disentangling the fantastic possibilities of plastic from the drastic consequences of their misuse.

Plastic Drastic Fantastic is a vibrant, fun and thought-provoking show for our time for everyone age 7 and above.
