Kids go free to Flying Theatre show!
Published on: 15 August 2024
With the summer holidays coming to an end, the RAF Museum Midlands has a special treat for families. With each adult ticket purchased for the Midlands’ action-packed family Flying Theatre show ‘Bravo, Bravo,’ up to two children can attend for FREE! Additionally, entry to the Museum itself is free, allowing you to enjoy the show and explore the hangars and aviation-themed playground all in one day.
Bravo, Bravo is an immersive performance about the world-famous RAF Chinook helicopter Bravo November, that will wow audiences as performers soar through the air with the help of a flying machine! This dynamic storytelling experience, enriched with humour, dance, and plenty of audience participation, brings to life the Chinook’s ‘impossible’ real-life tales, ensuring families are engaged from start to finish.
Over the course of the 45-minute show, performers embody the characters of Bravo November, and her friends, Vulcan, Victor and EAP. Each aircraft with their distinct personalities, compete against one another in a battle to be crowned the best aircraft. Despite Bravo November’s struggle to match the speed or size of her competitors, the final round reveals her incredible stories in a captivating demonstration of her spirit and invaluable contribution to the Royal Air Force.
Crafted by Highly Sprung, the UK’s leading physical theatre company for children and young people, Bravo, Bravo combines exceptional skill and artistry, with an immersive portrayal of Bravo November’s real-life legacy, showcasing a machine that epitomises the extraordinary.
