Get ready to blast off!
Meet Jasper: a ten-year-old from the year 2101 who has big dreams of exploring the Solar System. When a trip to the local spaceport takes an unexpected turn, he finds himself launched on a cosmic adventure.
But they can't navigate the journey alone.
From the craters of the Moon to the rings of Saturn, Voyagers is an interactive play where your children become the crew. They will take part in the storytelling, flying the spaceship through deep space, navigating a Martian sandstorm to retrieve ice-fuel, and repairing the star tracker after an asteroid strike.
Perfect for brave space-explorers aged 6–11, Voyagers is an unforgettable journey about dreams, teamwork, and never giving up. Will you join the crew?
The show is aimed at children aged 6-11 and their families - younger children are welcome.
