REMEMBER THE DRAGONS... (11+) – 2017
30 fascinating stories, told by children from 21 different countries, in 15 languages. A motley crew that joins the audience at a large oval table
Attention! Remember the dragons… is a feast of lies, only accessible to teens and youngsters. Parents and accompanying adults are welcome to wait in a special waiting room, where they can follow the performance by means of a live-feed. The waiting area will prove to be more significant and meaningful than you can imagine at this point.
In Remember the dragons ... BERLIN immerses you in a sea of stories that seem too absurd to be true. A girl from Morocco is never hungry, feels no pain and hardly needs any sleep. A Danish boy has known since his 4th birthday that he would rather be a girl. A boy of the same age from South Africa made dozens of crop circles with his grandfather. At night, in secret. True or False? And where does that little space man suddenly come from?
Remember the dragons... is a video-installation for youngsters aged 11 and up. A large table with thirty screens offers place to 30 viewers who love impressive stories. The show is based on BERLIN's success story Perhaps all the dragons..., which has now been performed over 590 times
Remember the dragons... shows the same stories to the children and adults from different perspectives and sends them back home with a special set of shared memories and a beautiful sparkling moonstone.
Languages: Dutch, Ukrainian, German, Spanish, English, Russian, Arabic, Gujarati, French, Croatian, Chinese, Danish, Italian, Hebrew, Romanian
With subtitles.
