Licketyspit Theatre Company
Licketyspit is a specialist early years theatre & play company based in Scotland, which aims to fire imaginations and deliver children’s rights through theatre and intergenerational drama-led play. We call our approach Storyplay. It is rooted in theatre stories, rhymes, songs and games, created for and with 3-8 year old children, families, and communities.
Licketyspit creates and delivers work from full-scale theatre shows to intergenerational play projects, to intensive, drama-led early intervention. We believe that theatre and drama can empower children, increase their capacity to flourish and support their wellbeing. We also believe that everyone needs what children need, and when we play we relax and feel most like ourselves.
Licketyspit's work is fully inclusive and our Children & Families Network includes a high proportion of refugees, children with additional support needs and families living in poverty. We work with professionals and practitioners working with children, in the arts, youth work, refugee support sector, and in school and nursery settings, and we share our learning at local, national and international level. In South East Glasgow we are currently running Porridge & Play Castlemilk, a New Scots Integration project in partnership with Indigo Childcare and Castlemilk Furniture Project.
