It’s Harlow New Town’s 75th birthday, and everyone’s invited to the party!
Drawn from Matipo Arts’ work within the Harlow community, Harlow75 is an energetic,
silly-yet-serious portrait of Harlow; what it was, what it is, and what it could be. Join us
for a night of memories, hopes… and quite a lot of dancing about.

Asha and the Troll is a funny, friendly, modern folk tale for 7-11 year olds. It is a theatre for young audiences production, with elements of storytelling, music and puppetry. We are swapping technical requirements for good old imagination, and as such, Asha and the Troll can be performed anywhere, in a COVID safe way.
Asha + The Troll centres around the themes of empathy, agency and friendship. It is based on the traditional Norwegian folk story ‘The Boy Who Had An Eating Match With a Troll’, and can be linked to KS2-3 humanities and PSHE curriculums.

Professionally performed at The Redbridge Drama Centre (2017), Bread and Roses Theatre (2018) and Space Arts Centre (2018)
