FeastFest: Bee Cart
Bee Guides Bombus and Borage are from a secret government organisation called The Human Union of Pollinators – preparing for the worst but hoping for the best with their mobile world of interaction, Bee wisdom and surreal fun.
Delve into the world of Bees, learn the pollen packing dance, the waggle dance and try out their Buzz Pollenator or their Flapper-Winger-Tronerators, meet a giant Varroa Mite, and maybe even get your nose pollinated! Suitable for all the family with rave reviews from festivals, environmental, food and agriculture events, schools and museums
Developed from Pif-Paf’s acclaimed touring installation-show HONEY, the Bee Cart is an exciting, accessible walkabout theatre piece for audiences of all ages. Pete Gunson formed Pif-Paf in 2003 in Manchester inspired by his engineering background and companies he’d worked with. Eleanor Hooper, joint artistic director, trained as a fine artist specialising in portraiture, mask making and performance art.
Commissioned by the British Science Association.
