Stiltskin are a touring arts and theatre company using the arts to inspire and engage children and their families, especially of primary school age. We weave together physical theatre, circus and the visual arts to create lively, innovative theatre. We currently tour into primary schools with shows that support the curriculum and facilitate follow on workshops and residencies about the content of the show. Stiltskin also create parade and pageant with children structures and costumes to enliven outdoor events all year round.
