The Armchair Adventures podcast was first created in the first lockdown in 2020. We worked alongside our over-65s theatre group and different community groups to create a series of eight interactive podcast adventures, using people’s own life experience, with music, song and movement.
The story follows Connie, whose parents run a travel agency that had to close due to coronavirus. With the help of her customers (our community group members), she takes them on exciting fictional journeys of the imagination.
The podcast is written especially for children to enjoy and eight episodes of series 1 are available online and on podcast apps on your mobile phone for anyone to listen to.
Each episode is inspired by a person’s experience, knowledge and passions and expressed through drama, music and immersive sound design.
We’ve been featured on BBC Radio 4 and have had over 20,000 listens!
