Emporium Curioso 2

About the show

Tucked away on a quiet little street, away from all the hustle and the bustle, sits a little shop. It’s coming up to Christmas, so you’d think that there’d be lots of customers this morning, but it’s unusually quiet. Maybe it’s all the snow!

Our shopkeepers are keeping the place clean and tidy. They are making sure that the decorations look pretty, and they’re remembering how popular the shop used to be. There are so many memories here.

All the curious items in the little shop have a story to tell. Some stories are sad, some are happy. Some stories are scary, some will make you laugh. The shop is a kind of museum, specialising in trinkets, whispers, and forgotten chapters of lives lived and lives lost.

Performed by an LDC-Learning Disabled Cast. A cast of learning disabled actors and their creative enablers. Presented by Bright Sparks Theatre Company, a Leeds based theatre company with a majority Learning Disabled cast.
