ABOUT:

This 30 minute-show, specially made for pre-schoolers is a story about how one friend can become many. In a quiet world, simply constructed from multiple cylinders of all shapes and sizes, we meet a very shy boy and witness how he makes a friend. This nonverbal performance is a wonderous tale of reassurance, joy and connection ... with a little magic. Exquisitely nuanced to engage young audiences, the Boy & the Ball is storytelling at its finest.

Recommended for kids aged 3-6.
