The Instrumentals

Coming to Southbank Centre, London Feb 2024 - Book Here

A Goblin, Blouse & Skirt, Little Angel Theatre & Mercury Theatre Co-Production

When Belle is feeling down she slips into her grandfather’s basement and discovers his old dusty instruments. But far from being junk, The Instrumentals are pure funk, and they teach Belle to ‘get down’ in a whole new way.

Bursting to life with brilliant puppetry and bold music, the Instrumentals is full of love and laughter, about the memories we hold and how we celebrate life. This is a show for all children with characters, story & inspiration from the African-Caribbean diaspora. It’s full of uplifting original music with soulful sounds and seventies grooves.

Combined with innovative puppetry and lots of comedy, this fun musical journey will have audiences dancing in the aisles!

The Instrumentals ran at Little Angel Theatre, Mercury Theatre and on Tour in 2023. In 2024 we are performing the show at Southbank Centre in The Purcell Room as part of Imagine Fest. Tickets can be found here
