Flox, the box and the clouds

A performance with no speech, only music and a desktop- puppet doll.

A child discovers through playing the world by looking at it through the spectrum of the free childish fantasy until…a big ‘must’ interrupts her game and force her to follow destinations that she would never have chosen. Fear and agony take the place of joy and discovery. But…every problem brings along a gift. The bigger the problem, the bigger the gift will be. A performance for children from 3- 93 years old and youngsters from all ages that love music and they despise all the ‘musts’.
