POUFFF Lichtbende | Netherlands
Contemporary light theatre using magic lanterns and wind instruments for all ages, from 4 to 104 years!The story begins with the sun rising and the birth of “Poufff”, a young bird that grows up as an orphan followed by a breathtaking, exciting, poetic and funny search for his kind. The performance “Poufff” of Lichtbende is a very special encounter with rarely seen projections combined with live sounds and music. The audience will immediately be fascinated by the projections and music and dragged into a fantastic and wordless world of surprising and enigmatic images.Tiny objects come to life as impressively large light images. With old magic lanterns this secret world is projected onto a billowing screen.The music breathes life into the characters and outlines their emotions. You will hear: clarinet, flute, tuba, trombone, organ and homemade instruments, played live.The performers are in full view so you can see how everything, including the music, is created, which is a large part of the whole experience, where dream worlds and reality mix.
