![]() ![]() Whereas kids and culture are often a happy festival addition, here these elements are an integral part of the line up.įriday morning began with early morning pyjama games in Pandora's Playground, accidentally watching Made Up Stories From My Unmade Bed by Page One Theatre Company, a troupe of performers aimed at small children (we had been heading for live art in the woods). The festival sees audiences of all ages from newborn to grandparents, as well as the usual hot pants and wellies-clad teenagers and 20-somethings, this year mostly covered in neon glow paint. Latitude has a multi-arts offering spanning ballet and mainstream theatre to conceptual performance and live art as well as music - popular and new - in abundance. From the bewitching opening ceremony on the Waterfront Stage on Thursday evening, with a spellbinding vocal performance from The Irrepressibles and a haunting surrealist display of costume, ambient sounds and pyrotechnics of Ilotopie performing Le Reve A Travers La Porte (Doorway To A Dream) to the final mammoth rock of The Black Keys, drifting past stages nestled in whimsical, bohemian locations leads to the continuous unearthing of new, unexpected delights. And yet the civilised chaos of who and what to see, where, is what makes up the Latitude experience.
