Background & General aims of Booster Cushion Theatre for Children
Background & General aims of Booster Cushion Theatre for Children Booster Cushion Theatre for Children was formed specifically to make primary school productions that encourage children to take more interest in books. BCT makes children’s entertainment that is enjoyable and rewarding. We are the alternative to traditional children’s entertainers making shows for children using an imaginative and comical retelling approach to traditional stories. BCT’s solo performer works similar to a children’ entertainer or kids entertainer but in a theatrical form, often presenting kids theatre to children for their first time. As such children’s theatre is so important that the whole experience has to be fun and surprising for the children. Booster Cushion Theatre for Children wants the children to come back again and again to see kids theatre. Hence participation has a tremendous role in clearly showing all adults, teachers, librarians, parents, arts officers, children's programmers, child minds and child careers that the show is working. Equally laugh out loud comedy gives a very clear indication that a theatre show is hitting the spot for its young audience and then the silence of concentration tells yet again. This all leads to the theatre experience being positive and something that should be seen again by every young person. Eventually after many positive visits to the theatre and successful visits to their school, youth club, art centre, local library, park and adventure play ground the young children will grow to look out for and attend theatre productions and shows on their own account.
