An immersive, sensory and experiential opera, Roll Up! is inspired by contemporary circus, natural elements and ancient traditions of entertainment where Tumblers, Fortune Tellers, Magicians, Flyers, and Daredevils reveal the magic in the everyday.  

Roll Up! was created throughout the school year 2022-23, involving students (aged 4-19) and staff throughout the school in different aspects of making the piece through sound, storytelling, movement, and design. It was performed at Sandgate School on 29 and 30 June 2023.

The screening will be followed by refreshments and a short Q+ A about the process with members of the creative team.
