Can't Sit Still

Can't Sit Still Can't Sit Still creates devised work combining physical theatre, circus & original music. We tell st Literally.

Can't Sit Still is a South Gloucestershire based arts organisation. We devise projects and shows using physical theatre, circus and live music. We make work with and for unusual audiences, often in unusual locations. We tell stories and start conversations that have the power to change the world, by turning ideas, systems and people upside down.
