A rock gig for families with live music, comedy, animation and performance from Kid Carpet.
Kid Carpet brings the Super Mega Rockin' Rock Show to Gloucester Guildhall on Sunday 28 February, with two performances that day at 11:00 and 14:00. He describes it as a rock gig for families, and it's built from the best bits of his anarchic family stage work.
It's a lively, interactive hour that mixes live music, performance, comedy, animation and ping-pong balls, all worked around classic tracks like 'Gorilla', 'Poo in the Forest' and 'Golden Eagle'. The show runs for 50 minutes and is suitable for ages 3-10.
Kid Carpet didn't start out in children's theatre. Over the last 20 years he's built an international reputation as a pioneer of catchy, lo-fi electro-pop, releasing five albums and performing alongside acts like Arcade Fire, and collaborating with cult film director Alex Cox before turning to the stage. He says he puts a punk DIY attitude at the heart of his work for families, aiming for something wilder than the usual 'twee, over-sweetened or super safe' children's entertainment.
