The Weather Machine

FAO: Schools and Early Years Settings (Nursery, Reception and KS1 including SEND) Headteacher or Assistant Headteacher EYFS

With generous support from Arts Council England, The Weather Machine by Kate Flatt OBE will be available to Schools and Early Years Settings from Autumn 2023. With recent sell-out performances at The Royal Opera House and national tour dates across the summer, this is an exciting opportunity to engage young people with dance and movement, whilst developing their understanding of weather and seasons.

The Weather Machine is a dance theatre experience designed for 3 to 6-year-olds, which looks playfully into how the two dancing mechanicals grapple with the unpredictable weather. Both entertaining and

intriguing, the work sees the two characters interact with their fantastical weather machine as they

try to keep the climate balanced, approaching this difficult subject matter sensitively and tenderly.
