A family-friendly puppet show celebrating African and Caribbean culture is visiting the Curve Venue this February. The West African tale, Anansi and the Lost Sun sees a lion appeal for someone to bring back light and save the world. Anansi stories are part of a multicultural heritage which travelled with enslaved African people to the Caribbean and beyond. Using traditional West African stories about Anansi the spider, the group aims to build a cross-generational dialogue and reverence for African-Caribbean culture and history. Other family shows at Curve Venue this half term include In the Dead of the Night on Tuesday, February 13 at 2pm Choogh Choogh and on Thursday, February 15 at 2pm.
