Our 6th pop-up touring show for younger audiences: Goldfield’s children’s productions present a unique blend of the finest chamber music intricately woven into original storytelling and imaginative live imagery in the form of simple props, puppetry and shadow-play.

Three Stories About Flying is a show about resilience and resourcefulness, about finding inspiration in the most unlikely of places and how flights of imagination and fantasy can inspire incredible real-life achievements.

Goldfield and NMC records are incredibly proud to launch the debut commercial recording of Erika Fox at the beautiful Austrian Cultural Forum, Knightsbridge. The evening will include performances from the album by Goldfield musicians and an ‘in conversation’ with Kate Romano (Goldfield Artistic Director) and Erika who also celebrates her 83rd birthday that day! There will be refreshments and a chance to chat and  – of course  –  to grab yourself a copy of our fabulous CD! The event is FREE but space is very limited so please do book your place online as soon as the tickets are released. [Please note that there are some stairs leading up to the performance space and regrettably no lift as the ACF is a listed building]. We hope to see you there!

Bogles, Marsh Sprites & Green Mists: Three Fenland Stories

Folk stories are all about us. We are the story and in each retelling, we reveal the amazing mixture of what we are really like: kind, brave, scared, lonely, funny, nervous, friendly. Linking the stories are ancient childhood games, rhymes and rituals – the lore of school children and the playground, a culture forgotten or mostly ignored by adults. Our new show is an inspirational, quirky, mysterious and uplifting rhythmical journey through the ‘black glistening peat-lands, where great black snags work their way up from submerged forests below’, where bogles and marsh sprites play tricks and a North sea wind whistles through stunted willows….
