The NT’s online platform offers personalised, interactive adventure tales for young children during the summer holidays
The National Theatre has launched an online story service that will create customised interactive adventures for children around the UK. Madame Kalamazoo’s Magical Mail is designed as an escapist treat for primary school pupils whose summer holidays will this year unfold amid the disruption and uncertainty caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
Parents and guardians are invited to register online and children will then receive an email from Madame Kalamazoo. The mysterious storyteller will send 19 email stories in total and they can be received daily or just at weekends. The tales are personalised, with children as the heroes of adventures set in their own homes. Children can contribute artwork to help move the stories along in what the National calls “an act of collective storytelling with other children across the country”.
