Hackney Children’s Theatre is  a new children’s theatre space at St John at Hackney church. Once a month on a Saturday morning St John’s will host a new show made especially for children and their families inside the main church space.

The Hackney Children’s Theatre  is being produced by Adrenalindance, company in residence in the church , in partnership with St John at Hackney church.

Our vision is to program and platform work that is reflective of exciting modern theatre for children. We are inviting theatre companies from all disciplines like puppetry , circus and dance  that make interesting and excellent theatre to present their shows for young audiences. We aim to make admission affordable and offer family concessions . The theatre needs all the support it can get we are raising funds to keep it alive .

CHURCH MICE
Our first show to open the theatre  on the 10 September was from Adrenalindance called Church Mice. A tale of  mice living inside the church and a tail hunting vicar. The performance started at St Augustines tower in Mare st narrow way and audience members where led by a 10 ft skeleton puppet and samba band to the church. 170 people attended the two shows and left with a gingerbread mouse ,asking when was the next .
