Tongue Twister
Greg Sinclair and Scottish Theatre Producers • Professional company
About the show
Tongue Twister is a children's theatre show created and performed by Greg Sinclair and produced by Scottish Theatre Producers, commissioned by Imaginate in partnership with Aberdeen Performing Arts and in association with Kloden Teater. One performer attempts to say tongue twisters in as many different languages as possible — whilst also dancing, making music and completing all costume changes without leaving the stage. Featuring dazzling costumes and innovative visual design, it is a humorous, colourful and rhythmical celebration of the musical beauty of language. The show runs for 50 minutes at the Cromdale Theatre, suitable for ages 5 and over.
Why see this show?
A joyful, visually inventive show that turns language itself into music and spectacle — perfect for curious children and adults alike. The combination of tongue twisters, dance, live music and costume wizardry makes it a delightful experience.
