We watched our first non-verbal show- AIR PLAY! This show is a circus-style adventure of two siblings journeying through a surreal world and the amazing part of the show was, the props used were actually simple, everyday objects around us and nothing fanciful! Think about what music, fans, balloons, umbrellas, silk cloth and glitter can do? Coupled with music, it was indeed mind-blowing and captivating!
Glitter, balloons, big and small as we watched them circulating in the air, coupled with plenty of audience interaction and participation, beautiful flying umbrellas, graceful dancing silk and larger-than-life kites that seemed to be flying over and reaching out to us! Be sure that the show is going to incite the curiosity in the kids! Even as an adult, it was mind-blowing with the stunning effect of the flying confetti in the night sky. As the confetti circulated just like what we see in a snow globe, the effect was amazeballs as they sparkled brightly against the dark backdrop. I wish time could freeze that moment and I could be sitting right on the stage with the cast! Let your imagination run with the show! Trust me that, this is one show you would not want to miss! Be guaranteed of loads of laughter too!
IMAGINIQUE is an innovative children's festival offering live theatre and music experiences for children ages 0-12. This festival aims to offer immersive, non-verbal performances that are designed to excite the imagination and incite curiosity in children by doing away with the stage, physically immersing and captivating them.
The festival idea was inspired by renowned childrens festivals around the world like the Edinburgh International Children's Festival, Brisbane's Out-of-the-box Festival and Okinawa's Ricca Ricca Festival - that offer quality theatre experiences to young audiences, even as young as babies! They are part of a growing trend "baby theatres" worldwide that aimed to develop inner curiosity, focus and a strong sense of identity and emotional empathy in young children, it is never too young to be exposed to theatre arts!
