May Fly/ May Not

Our show toured in the Autumn of 2025 in venues in re-generational areas of Aberdeen. The tour was Supported by Aberdeen City Council’s Culture Investment Programme, which allowed us to provide a show free show of charge to families living in the Aberdeen area.

It was previously performed at Aberdeen’s Light the blue Festival and will be showcased at this years Dance Live! Festival in October 2026.

May Fly/May not is an interactive theatre and dance show for 3-8 year olds and their families packed with movement, music, puppetry and audience participation.

May fly/May not is inspired by Lilian Bland- the first woman in the world to design, build and fly her own plane! The show aims to inspire young people to be creative, to be curious and to dream big!

May Fly/May not was created by performer and creative producer Sarah Ord, Dance Artist and cheoreographer Laura Booth and and Emerging Director and theatre maker Leah Chrsitie. The show was generously funded by Creative Scotland and supported by Aberdeen Arts Centre and Aberdeen Performing Arts Light the Blue Festival. The tour has been supported by Aberdeen City Council’s Culture Investment Programme.
