Mimika Theatre - Small Worlds / 22.01.2017
The HopBarn is delighted to be able to bring a unique performance experience for 5 - 11 year olds along with their parents and guardians combining a fusion of puppetry, animated films and miniature landscapes.
Small Worlds by acclaimed UK theatre company Mimika Theatre invites you to step inside their small tent and enter an intimate environment where five stories unfold throughout the course of a single day.
Meet five characters - a bug, a goose, a fox cub, a cat and a six year old girl - and watch their wordless stories unfold.
Stories about journeys, big and small, stories about taking that first step into a bigger world.
This is an unforgettable piece of visual theatre - a unique integration of puppetry, miniature landscapes, original animated film and music.
They saw the sun rise and by the time it had set
they had all entered a much bigger world
