Crescendorious brings multi-sensory gig-theatre A Message for the Future to families in London

Crescendorious, a punk and joyous children’s theatre company founded by Brigitte Aphrodite & Quiet Boy, is comng to London as part of their UK tour of their beloved multi-sensory art installation and gig-theatre experience, A Message for the Future. Commissioned by artsdepot and Southbank Centre’s Imagine Festival in 2025 to sold-out audiences, A Message for the Future has already captivated and engaged a wide range of families and communities, specifically designed for early years and all family audiences.

Audiences will explore a magical future garden where they can meet a punk poet Dandelion, a rock n roll Minibeast and an operatic super Herb. It promises a multi-sensory experience that subverts the early years genre through original rock n roll music, celebrating a journey of nature and kindness. This calm pocket of spirited joy explores a future full of hope, the wonders of the environment, and its unsung heroes.

Sensory-Friendly Gig Theatre for Early Years

At its core, A Message for the Future is a meditative, immersive, theatrical space in surround sound which explores themes of coexistence with nature and creativity. Its purpose is connection with both your little ones and the environment whilst engaging multiple senses – sight, sound, touch, and smell.

Accessibility is at the heart of A Message for the Future, ensuring it is always a sensory-friendly space for neurodivergent and disabled audiences. It creates a safe and meditative space with immersive surround sound where families can reflect on their relationship with nature and explore ways to live in harmony with the environment.

Through vibrant visuals, interactive elements (fresh herbs, water play, warm lavender bags for adults to relax with whilst children explore) and gig theatre, the project encourages audiences to dream of a brighter, more sustainable future. All elements are designed with access considered for 0–3-year-olds (older siblings welcome) and their parents/carers.

The show will head to Grand Junction, Rowington Close, London on Saturday 17 October.
