"Charlie was one of our performers for Above & Beyond Children's Theatre festival 2019 in Plymouth Libraries. She was superb with the young people, both when telling stories and when interacting in the library. She has a lovely energy with the families and really holds their attention, igniting young imaginations. We would recommend Charlie for any performances for young people."

Above Bounds Theatre Company hosted a 3 day childrens festival in 3 libraries across Plymouth. Each day anyone who came into the library could get stuck in to free crafts, free facepainting and enjoy the free storytimes performed by the strippy troop. These story slots were a mixture of stories from a book, performance pieces and music and songs. The idea was to bring interactive play and performance to the library inbetween the shows that were held each day by professional children's theatre companies. The festval is held to encourage more people, families and children to engage with theatre and enable them to access the arts even if they can't access main theatre venues. It was a joy to be part of.
