Remember the
future...this brand new musical heralds the 2012 Preston Guild by charting the evolution of four local families across sixty years. It’s 1952 and four young women give birth to ‘Guild Babies’. Twenty years later as the town celebrates another Guild, their paths begin to part, but they intertwine again in 1992 when the bulk of this musical is set. Finally, there’s a glimpse of the future as the next Guild approaches as those born in ’52 look back on the loves, losses, disappointments and joys of their Preston days.

“Can I go to the Moon?” asked Baby Bear.
“No you can’t,” said Mrs Bear. “It’s bathtime.

Using puppetry, movement, object animation, a bit of juggling and a lot of imagination, Whatever Next! explores the joy of imaginative play and the wonders of space, accompanied by a specially composed, magical musical score. For ages 3-7
