Giant creatures, teeny tiny insects, a talking mollusc and a cat (in boots) are all heading to Warwick Arts Centre this half term.

Dinosaur World Live (Sat 25-Sun 26 Feb 2023) is a roar-some interactive family adventure that uses inventive puppetry to bring a host of giant prehistoric creatures to life.

For younger visitors My First Concert: Stomp And Sing (Thu 23 Feb 2023) is a relaxed and interactive concert for ages 0-7 years (and their grown-ups), and sees professional musicians share their passion for classical music.

There are also two Family Sundays (Sun19 and 26 Feb 2023) within Spring Half-Term, each featuring free creative artist-led activities for families. Running 1.30pm-4pm, these regular drop-in activities are all about making, exploring and having fun as a family, with Sunday 26 February preceded by a monthly Family Singing session (11.30am-12.30pm) - a free drop-in hour of singing, moving and dancing that's open to all ages.

Continuing the ‘small’ theme, Marcel The Shell With Shoes On (PG - Fri 17-Wed 22 Feb 2023) is a heart-warming feature based on the series of cult stop-motion shorts that have wowed the internet.

Spinning off from the monstrous Shrek film series, Puss In Boots: The Last Wish (PG - Fri 17-Thu 23 Feb 2023) sees the swashbuckling Puss (voiced by Antonio Banderas) discover he's used up eight of his nine lives.
