Not Today
(working title)

A vibrant, daring and heart warming circus theatre show about unlikely friendship.

Hikapee are working on a brand new show! With initial research & development (R&D) taking place in Spring 2024, we are right at the beginning of the creation for this new and exciting production.
We will present a sharing of the show at Jackson’s Lane, London on 10th April 2024.

'Not Today' is a vibrant, daring and heartwarming show about unlikely friendship. Meet two best friends from very different backgrounds, whose favourite thing to do is to climb and play on 'their' giant fallen willow tree.
Until one of them begins to struggle.
This is when the hole appears and they begin to physically descend into 3m of darkness. With the help of their friend and an explosion of colour, they begin to climb their way back to this special friendship.

With two performers, the show is specifically created for children aged 4-8, and explores themes of anxiety and low mood within children.

We’re currently in a period of research & development (R&D) with a public sharing at Jacksons Lane in April 2024.

Supported by Arts Council England, 101 Outdoor Arts Creation Space,
Jacksons Lane, The Horton Epsom
