Away… from Home! is a raucous 10-minute interactive installation building a holiday experience that peaks perfection before descending into chaos. A multi-sensory experience for 1 household at a time which makes expert use of magic, object manipulation and innovative sound design.
Created and performed in the midst of the Covid 19 pandemic, Away…from Home! was originally commissioned by Imaginate for the Edinburgh International Children’s Festival in 2021 at the Royal Botanic Gardens where lots of families and young people took part in the work. It returned to the Children’s Festival in 2022 at the National Museum of Scotland.
