Wondrous Stories took place in Centenary Square on 18th, 18, 19th and 20th March and was the kick-off for the Birmingham 2022 festival with dance-circus performers alongside “immersive action and plenty of thrills as stories, a giant book and characters tumble out of the night sky”. Before the actual public performances there were rehearsals and its against that backdrop that we see 17 sitting at the Library terminus before departing for Wolverhampton.
