'Outside in'
'Outside In' is a trilogy of bedside interactive performances for children and their grown-ups on paediatric wards, imagining the outside in, through sensory and visual delights. ​
In Comes a Winters Wish
‘In Comes a Winter’s Wish’ brings a sparkling dose of winter magic onto the hospital wards through live music, physical theatre, and puppetry.
Co-created with children in hospital, the bedside show is inspired by their winter dreams of flying snowmen, giant snowballs and sleigh rides right from the hospital bed.
Blending Barefooted’s playful, interactive style, In Comes a Winter’s Wish weaves together sensory play with moments of wonder, imagination and connection. It is a gentle celebration of the season and the quiet power of making a wish.
This heartwarming performance brings joy to children and families spending winter in hospital, inviting them into a world where, just for a moment, wishes really can come true.
