Event Description
Come and sing, move and imagine alongside Anne Carroll Moore, a trailblazing librarian born in 1871, who tells the incredible story of a time when children were banned from libraries - and how she imagined and built a magical space created just for children.
Bursting with catchy songs, lively puppets, and interactive moments, this playful musical invites children to take part, share their ideas, and help bring Miss Moore’s vision to life. You will never look at your library in the same way again!
For ages 3-6 - all ages welcome
Running time: 35 min
The performances at The Circle Library will be filmed. This means that the backs of children’s heads—and occasionally a child’s face—may appear in the recording. If you would prefer that your child does not appear in the filming, we can adjust seating arrangements accordingly. Alternatively, you may wish to attend the performance at Honeywood Museum on Friday 24, which will not be filmed.
