Slapstick for Kids at The Stoller Hall, Manchester 13 May 2017 Tickets from £5.00 — Book now

Neil Brand, renowned silent film accompanist, playwright and presenter of the BBC’s Sound of Musicals presents a sidesplitting morning like no other in Manchester’s newest performance venue.

Expect a rip roaring and interactive tour through uproarious clips “from the golden age of cinema” and see how moments on screen and stories can be transformed through live accompaniment . There is a chance to suggest your own ideas and be inspired to create soundtracks of your own.

We love that this is such a refreshing, uplifting and creative event which stands out from the commercial family film crowd.
