Share 3 days and 3 nights with 3 lighthouse keepers. By day they work, watch and wait, whatever the weather. At night, lanterns are lit and things get weird, wonderful, and wild.
Gaggle is made especially for young audiences who have complex additional support needs (ASN), and their families — most suitable for teenagers with complex ASN, and also enjoyed by children age 5+ with ASN. The production is a non-verbal, highly sensory, stimulating, and very funny physical comedy experience featuring 4 performers (3 lighthouse keepers and 1 musician), slapstick comedy, 3.5m circus pole acrobatics, amplified sound, live singing, torches and lanterns, and vibrating sensory seashells.
Delighted to play as 'Buoy' the musician; utilising vocals, accordion, uke, midi sound sampler and one of the lighthouse keepers throughout the tour.
There are frequent moments of stillness and silence to offer the audience time to process, engage, and respond in their own ways, with the performers welcoming noise, movement, and any and all audience responses.
