Bigfoot’s brilliant range of fun, interactive and inspiring programmes are a fantastic opportunity to give pupils creative learning experiences which explore and enjoy the curriculum and beyond. Perfect for Arts Weeks, Enrichment days, Post SAT’s treats and / or end of term celebrations!
Programmes include:
- Rapspeare LIVE! show for KS2 & KS3
RAPSPEARE LIVE! is a fun and fast paced exploration of some of the Bard’s most famous plays. Story, imagination and intrigue will play a major role in helping to immerse participants in his verse so that they can understand more intricately about the language and writing style he created, but also how his transcripts were transferred to stage and performed for all to enjoy!

- Goldilocks on Trial; The BIG Experience (1 hour) for KS1 & KS2
You are invited into Judge Knowitall’s Court Room to hear the case against Goldilocks as she is charged with trespassing, theft and criminal damage at the home of The Three Bears.

Her fate is in your hands!
- Wolf on Trial; The BIG Experience (1 hour) for KS1 & KS2
What really happened to the 3 Little Pigs?! You are invited for ‘Jury Service’ for the trial of Alexander T Wolf. Meet Judge Chief as she unpicks the evidence with some help from the police, CCTV footage, as well as the three little piggies themselves. Hear straight from the horse’s (well, the Wolf’s!) mouth, his version of events, before you are left to decide; is he guilty or not guilty?!
Come and completely re-imagine two age old classic tales and let our Bigfooters-in- role delight and enthral your students throughout these fun fuelled literary adventures!
