InSite Drama is working in co-production with Kerekasztal TIE to create its latest theatre in education programme. The Giant’s Embrace will be participatory TIE production for nursery aged children. The story has been toured for many years by Birmingham’s renown TIE company Big Brum, and now Adam Bethlenfalvy from InSite, Arnold Nyári from Kerekasztal will be performing it and Ceri Townsend, from Accident Time will be designing and directing the production.
