GOALS and PLAN
FOR THE PROJECT
One of the greatest artistic challenges for me is to create a performance for a young audience that I have not initiated before on my own. A challenge is to find a common language that will be understandable and close to both children and adults. How to talk tenderly about serious issues such as death, love, equality, moments of loss in life, how to listen and hear, look and see, to be independent but to be able to be with someone?
Children are the most honest audience. They don't see with their eyes, but with their hearts. Therefore, it is a great challenge to establish a dialogue with them.
This project also requires cooperation with a playwright. This is also one thing I will be doing for the first time.
And of course, designing and creating puppets is also an interesting experimental research process for me as always.
1. Design and construction of forms for the future performance, namely elements of scenography, scenery, props and puppets. About 10 puppets of various techniques will be involved in the performance. Most of these dolls are not designed in classical doll techniques. They combine several of them, which makes the process of creating puppets very experimental, interesting and exploratory. New opportunities and technological and functional solutions are opening up.
2. Writing the script. The inspiration for which will be Andersen's fairy tales. This stage will consist of cooperation with the playwright.
3. Formation of the acting team. The upcoming play needs actors. Actors - creators, interested in the goal of the project and ready to go on the road of trials and errors, experiments, in the construction of the play and research of the topic.
4. Cooperation with the composer. Music and sound will play a very important role in the performance. Sound is interpreted in a broad sense, as a voice, an object, an instrument, ... SILENCE. It can also sound.
5. The creation of a performance combines all the previous stages: collaboration between artists and preliminary work.
And then the PREMIER
