The Wildlife Project

Commissioned by Manx Wildlife Trust.

Funded by the National Lottery Community Fund through Manx Lottery Trust.

We are delighted to announce our first project for 2024!

The Wildlife Project is the development of an interactive audio theatre performance, which aims to educate children about the diverse wildlife found on the Isle of Man and empower them to become part of the solution to the challenges it faces.

The project’s unique devising and collaborative approach will involve those aged between 7 and 18 years old. Through workshops, they will share their concerns and passions regarding wildlife and the environment, which will inspire the script and storyline.

Artistic Directors of Hello Little People, Michelle Jamieson and Chloe Shimmin, will lead the first performances of the project in summer 2024, after which young people will receive training to deliver the outdoor theatre experiences to a younger audience aged 5 to 10.
