New Arts Council England Funding for Tree of Life

We are delighted to announce that Arts Council England have awarded us funding for our new work, Tree of Life.

This work, aimed at children aged 7+, explores the cultural significance of trees in the East and the West. Drawing inspiration from Buddha attaining enlightenment under a Bodhi (fig) tree in India and Newton discovering gravity from an apple tree in the UK, Tree of Life weaves a tale of how these two events lead to a deepening of human understanding, spiritually and scientifically.

Our thanks go to Arts Council England and to our partners Akademi, Cambridge Junction, Cambridge University Hospitals-Arts, Cambridge Curiosity and Imagination, DanceEast, Hertfordshire Libraries, Mercury Theatre.

We will be recording how this work develops through a series of films on our YouTube channel – just follow our Tree of Life playlist.
