Kobokoto Theatre brings together storyteller and drummer Jeanette Hodgson, and West African musician and dancer, Suliman Compo.

Be prepared for electrifying drumming rhythms and the haunting sound of unfamiliar instruments, as well as traditional dances and songs.

In the Zulu tale, No, Bocono, No, the central character wants, more than anything else in the world, to dance at a wedding.

But it's a struggle – as he is too small and doesn't have a spear.

In The Bride's Necklace, a tale from Kenya, a hyena, a bee and a crocodile help to complete seemingly impossible tasks set by a king to prevent the marriage of his daughter to a poor man.

The show will be followed by a workshop, that promises to give children the opportunity to explore rhythm through drumming in a fun and relaxed environment.

Tickets cost £5, or £7.50 for the show and workshop.
