Welcome!
Licketyspit is a specialist early years theatre and play company based in Scotland. We believe that play is the language of children and that if adults want to deliver on children’s rights, they need to rediscover the language of play. Our inclusive, transformative drama-led play approach is called Storyplay.
“There is no doubt in my mind that we have children in our nursery whose lives were changed by doing LicketyLeap.” Teacher
Licketyspit Winter Appeal
Season’s Greetings from everyone at Licketyspit!
As we head into 2026, we know that times are hard for everyone. Any contribution you can to make to this appeal will not only go towards funding our annual Winter Ceilidh for the families that we work with (old and New Scots alike) but will also help towards next year’s planned programme of work across Glasgow, so that we can continue to bring Storyplay (and healthy food) to the families most in need of our help.
What do we do?
Storyplay is built on the synergy between actors and children as play experts. It is rooted in developmental work we have carried out with 3-8 year olds and their families over the last 20 years. It is delivered by skilled actor-pedagogues who make it easy and fun for everyone to play. Supporting children & adults to unlock their imaginations and become their fullest selves. Our approach is underpinned by children’s rights, a commitment to equality and a belief that everyone is creative!
If you think Storyplay sounds like an approach that would enhance your practice, please get in touch to explore training and partnership options.
