Pomelo is in love… with the frog, the rain and many others! is a puppetry performance for small children. It tells the story of a tiny elephant who lives in a garden, discovers the changing of the seasons and his power to make a difference in the world. Pomelo’s garden is full of surprises: both the set and the puppets serve as musical instruments in the hands of the three puppeteers. After the performance, the actors hold a short workshop focusing on the sounds of nature.
FRACTAL THEATRE, ŁÓDŹ, REPUBLIC OF POLAND
Teatr FRAKTAL (FRACTAL Theatre) is an independent theatre company established in Poland in 2018 by a puppeteer and a theatre director Ewa Maria Wolska in collaboration with a puppeteer and actress Karolina Martin, who she met in Bialystok at the Puppetry Art Department of Aleksander Zelwerowicz Theatre Academy in Warsaw. Our goal was to create independent, experimental theatre that breaks with linear narrations and traditional dramaturgy. We strive to discover new theatrical forms by creating poetic and intimate art and strongly believe in the strength of a puppet and its visual, emotional, and non-verbal expression.
