DESCRIPTION:Performances at 10:30am & 1:30pm (Concert Hall) \nThe Goldfield Ensemble – Nicola Goldscheider & Emma Crossley\, violins | Bridget Carey\, viola | Toby Turton\, cello | Kate Romano\, clarinet & narrator \nA dazzling alchemy of chamber music\, stories and pictures\, set in a life-size Victorian paper theatre. Three of Hans Christian Andersen’s best-loved tales are woven into the story of Andersen’s own extraordinary life; his childhood home in deepest poverty\, his unshakeable belief that he was destined for greatness\, his passion for paper-snipping and his love of theatre. The backstage workings of the show—the scene changes\, the paper props and figures—are visibly seen by the audience\, revealing a curious toy-like world. Bespoke illustrations by Jonny Boatfield conjure up stories of emperors\, nightingales and swans\, through fantastical backdrops and intricate silhouettes. The score includes music by Felix Mendelssohn\, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart\, Igor Stravinsky\, Sergei Prokofiev\, Henry Purcell and Maurice Ravel\, performed live throughout the show. \nCurious about Hans Christian Andersen? has been created for music and story-lovers of all ages. We suggest a lower age limit of 5 years\, due to the duration of the show (around 50 minutes) and the focus on storytelling and live music\, which ask for a slightly longer attention span than children under the age of 5 are sometimes comfortable with. \nTickets £11 / £9 (under 25). \nSuitable for age 5+ Children must be accompanied by an adult. Adults and children all require tickets. \nFor info go to https://www.staplefordgranary.org.uk/whats-on/events/tiny-concerts-curious-about-hans-christian-andersen URL:https://cambridge105.co.uk/event/curious-about-hans-christian-andersen/ LOCATION:Stapleford Granary\, Bury Road\, Stapleford\, CB22 5BP END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20261007 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20261010 DTSTAMP:20260903T075512 CREATED:20260901T080550Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260901T080700Z UID:103110-1791331200-1791676799@cambridge105.co.uk SUMMARY:Footlights-Prize Cow DESCRIPTION:Join the Cambridge Footlights for the home run of their 2026 Tour Show: Prize Cow (For My Best Son). \nBoasting far fewer actual cows but far more student comedians than the average county fair\, this hour of zany sketches guarantees a night of hilarity in signature Footlights style.
