The Kurdish Garden

TPO Company (Italy)

One of three theatrical experiences in the Children’s Cheering Carpet series:

Use your feet and find your way into The Kurdish Garden with Italy’s leading children’s theatre company TPO. Feel the fantastic colours, peculiar shapes, beautiful sounds and secret life of the virtual painted landscape. Led by two dancers and using images created by the Kurdish artists Rebwar Saed, TPO lead you through a magical journey on a high-tech, sensor-sensitive capret, that triggers magical sounds, visuals and dance to create and unforgettable experience for yeye, ears, knees and toes.

“It is wonderful to see the impromptu interaction between audience members on stage and their exploration of colour and movement in space. Toddlers agree and squeal in delight from the side lines and young people as well as parents and carers are entranced. What a joyous and playful way to be introduced to art making, theatre and dance.” Australian Stage

Suitable for 4 – 8 years and adults

Created with the support of Teatro Metastasio repertory theatre of Tuscany. Originally commissioned and co-produced by the Lyric Hammersmith.
