Into the Blue Forest
A new production by Jeffrey Tan
Commissioned by the Artground
Premiered on 25, 26 and 27 May 2018
Synopsis
Imagine, a green tree trying to stand out in a busy green forest.
Who will the tree meet? Will the animals help?
Will the green tree ever achieve the dream of becoming a blue tree?
Concept
A new interactive, multilingual, intergenerational performance for children. Best for 4 to 7 years old. Inspired by the drawings by Dario Moretti and original story by Jeffrey Tan, this moving performance is limited to 60 children each performance.
