Where The Wildflowers Grow (11am)

  • Performance

 ‘Where the Wildflowers Grow’ is a charming, site-responsive, interactive piece of theatre by Waterford playwright and Theatre Royal artist in-residence Nick Kavanagh (Curious State Theatre Company, Waterford Spraoi) which promenades through the Theatre Royal building and out onto Waterford city’s streets. 

The show commences in Pockets’ small abode, in the Theatre Royal, before flowing out into the theatre’s urban biodiversity garden and onto the nearby city streets. Pockets and his troupe of actor-musicians will guide their young audience in live music and song on a magical journey through time, space, illuminations, and aural reimagining’s in this charming, unplugged, climate-conscious, theatrical experience. On the way, they’ll meet Mag and Mig, mischievous, musical magpies who live on the Mall. One for sorrow, two for joy, Mag is a girl and Mig is a boy. They spend their day scavenging for food and collecting shiny trinkets discarded or misplaced by the citizens as they make their way through the Viking triangle. 

Follow Pockets on an interactive journey through Waterford City, and then complete a workshop of your choice on biodiverse crafts.
