Breathe – Gaiety on Tour at McCosh Hall, Kirkmichael

BREATHE – Presented by Half a String
‘Breathe’ is a piece of original puppet theatre with a camera system that captures a story from the perspective of an acorn. Using live projection, ‘Breathe’ brings its audience on a journey of an acorn seedling through a busy forest.

Find the epic in the tiny from the perspective of an acorn.

Join this extraordinary journey to discover the beats and rhythms of a wild woodland world. Uncover bizarre larger-than-life fungi, creaking tree roots, and thrumming underworlds. Follow a “Seedling” as they hatch from an acorn and go on a journey of discovery through the undergrowth of the busy forest floor.

‘Breathe’ explores the inner workings of trees, beautifully realised with a combination of stunning puppetry, breathtakingly detailed sets, and groundbreaking live camera work.

Underscored through a unique blend of thumping drum & bass and live ethereal folk songs.

For ages 5+, ‘Breathe’ is an ideal collective experience for the whole family

Och Aye Spy - Museum Hunt for Young Explorers

Ayr
An illustration of Tiny Tam, a cute cartoon mouse, on a sandy beach with the ocean and a sailboat in the background. Tiny Tam is wearing yellow sunglasses, a blue-striped beanie with a pompom, and orange shorts. He has a pink flamingo-shaped inflatable ring around his body. To the left, a colourful beach ball rests on the sand. Behind him, a large postcard with a red and blue border reads "Wish you were here!" in a playful font, with a stamp in the top right corner that features a tiny mouse illustration. The scene has a bright and cheerful summer vibe.
