Questionnaire

Due to the fact that Children's theatre is very different, we have handed out a questionnaire to a focus group in order to find out what it is our target audience actually want in a performance. The results are as follows:

1.      Ages -

• 7-11

2.      What’s your favourite story? 

• Gruffalo      ////  
• Bear hunt //  
• Harry potter //
• Others included I love you so much and The Twits.

3.      Who’s your favourite character?  

• Goofy      /// 
• Olaf        /// 
• Belle       //  
• Others included Timone and Pumba, Red riding hood.

4.      What’s your favourite type of story? 

• Adventure
• Funny

5.      What do you think makes a good story?

• Funny bits
• An Adventure
• A Happy ending
• Songs

6.      What’s your favourite TV show / Film / Book ? 

• Frozen                  ////
• Harry potter  //
• Charlie and the chocolate factory      //
• Matilda              //

Collectively as a theatre company, we decided that these results, amongst other things, that within our piece, we should try to at-least incorporate these five elements; Imagination, Comedy - most of which may be slapstick -, Songs, Adventure - in which we hope to incorporate via audience interaction - and finally magic.
