What does it mean to follow a dream
When you don’t fit in
And the odds are stacked against you?
Come with the Great Odds, on an exciting, sometimes wobbly journey… Dreams change shape, unexpected things are uncovered and success comes through surprising discoveries.
Integrating visual storytelling, British Sign Language, live music, sound and puppetry, Mac’s Arcadian presents Great Odds, its first play, in co- production with Lighthouse Poole, supported by Improbable.
Perfect for a 6-11 year old audience and their families.
