Play our games

We at The House of Fairy Tales have devised three little worlds for you to experiment with:
Balloons, Spells and Potions. Come into our world and invent, destroy, create and play. You’ll be surprised what you can do, just spend a little time and patience and you’ll discover exploding apples, scary balloons, and how to turn a witch into asparagus (to name but a few bizarre experiences).

The House of Fairy Tales Travelling Art Circus

The House of Fairy Tales champions the role of creative play in art and was established in 2007 by writer Deborah Curtis and artist Gavin Turk. It is a non-profit arts collective which draws on an extensive team of artists, performers, writers, educationalists, designers, scientists, musicians, film-makers, dreamers and philosophers, who see the projects they create for The House of Fairy Tales as an extension of their art practice. Based in London, it is a nationally and internationally active organization, which uses the vast narrative scope of fairy tales to provide creative, innovative and transformative learning experiences for young people of all ages and their families.

In 2009 the Circus travelled to 7 different venues: Candlelit Matinée at the Shunt Vaults 30 artists and performers · 700 visitors, Tate Modern 240 artists and performers · 50,000 visitors, Glastonbury Festival 30 artists and performers· 5,000 visitors, Latitude Festival 50 artists and performers · 4,000 visitors, Port Eliot Festival 70 artists and performers · 3,000 visitors, National Trust Clumber Park 60 artists and performers · 6,000 visitors, The New Art Gallery Walsall 70 artists and performers · 5,000 visitors.
