Old Brooms Know The Corners at The acta Centre 7th September

Wed 7 Sep 2022 from 19:00 — 21:00

Leonie is a typical British teenager, testing the boundaries and not worrying about the consequences - that is until she's sent to live with her Grandma in the Caribbean. As her Grandma and the local aunties teach her to fall in line, they share stories from their own childhood, and lessons they've learnt along the way. Come along on the journey with Leonie as she learns that while new brooms may sweep clean, old brooms know the corners. Join acta’s Malcolm X Elders for this intergenerational show. Expect childhood stories and life lessons from the elders mixed in with Anansi tales and the singing our Malcolm X Elders shows have become known for. This is a feelgood show for all the family. Age guidance 5+: This show has not been designed with very young children in mind, but we believe it will engage those aged five and above. This performance will begin promptly at 7pm The cafe bar opens at 6.30pm - we encourage audiences to arrive by 6.45 This performance takes place at acta Community Theatre, Gladstone Street Bedminster, BS3 3AY
