My sister, the little monster

A theatre experience for children of highest quality where children participate and experience the magic of theatre, music and visual art.

My sister, the little monster is an artistic performance for children where the actress uses paper, music and light to tell them a story. The story is about how one can learn to love, even a monster. The actress invites the children into a white world of paper. The paper turns to life and eventually creates the characters of the story. The main character is a little boy who recently had a little sister. He realizes soon that she is not an ordinary child but a monster which is going to eat his mother and the whole world. 

After the performance the children get an opportunity to create from the paper which was used during the performance under guidance from Helga and Eva Signy who both are visual artists.

The performance takes about 35 minutes and the art creation afterwards about 45 minutes.
