Opportunity for children aged 8 to 11 to perform in exciting new show - Camden Rise

Award-winning arts organisation Fevered Sleep have an exciting opportunity for children in Camden and Islington to be part of their new show.

They’re looking for a group of confident, creative 8 to 11 year-olds based in Camden and Islington to take part in their latest performance, Time Keeps the Drummer. This is a new piece that they are touring the UK with in 2025 and 2026, stopping at The Place and Arts Depot in London this autumn.

Time Keeps The Drummer is a playful physical performance, full of bold images, improvised movement and dance. For each show, Fevered Sleep recruit a new, local group of children, making every performance unique to its location.

Any children taking part don’t need formal dance experience – just enthusiasm. Find out more on their website and view or download their mini-recruitment pack.
