Shed Ache
Stockwood Discovery Centre
Tue 28th October 2025
11am and 2pm
Shed-ache is a seriously silly dance theatre show that transports little people and their grown ups to a world that sits somewhere between reality and make believe.
Two friends (three if you count the shed!) get up to all sorts whilst faced with downpours, lava floors and socks falling out of the sky.
Shed-ache is a laugh out loud production about the give and take of friendship, the power of imagination and the importance to embrace experiences whatever the weather.
Be prepared to be blown away by aKa's brand new family-friendly show which is bright and sunny. With 100% chance of laughter.
