The Lost Treasure - Family Storytelling Performance

a magical storytelling performance within the mesmerising ‘Kaleido’ art installation as part of the Put Big Light on Festival 2026 in Bolton.

Meet Alina and Eli, siblings and professional Treasure Finders, as they collect and sort treasure on their shimmering planet. Glittery treasure, sparkling treasure, gleaming and glowing treasure, they happily unearth and sort their finds, stacking and organising their precious pieces.

Until, one day, they discover a treasure they don’t recognise, a treasure unlike any other they have ever seen...

Join Alina and Eli on their light filled, immersive quest to find out where the lost treasure belongs and help get it safely home.

The Lost Treasure is an original storytelling performance, developed and directed by Maya Shimmin.
