Let our babies experience the forest thrills through sound and movement in a multi-sensory adventure. As crisp percussion, gentle voices and wondrous sound effects become whispering winds, bird songs, falling leaves, and babbling brooks, the little ones will be immersed in a truly unique, unforgettable world, enthralled by nature's rhythms and vibrations.
The show is created by local producer Chan Si Kei, percussionist and composer Yukie Lai, together with Luxembourger musical director Jean Bermes and Austrian choreographer Ela Baumann, trailing on the success of the baby theatre Sweet Dreams in the Woods, staged at the festival in 2024. Featuring dance moves, handcrafted instruments and distinctive sound installations, it’s a multi-dimensional soundscape packed with improvisation and lively physical interaction, engaging our baby's vision, hearing, and touch through playful exploration.
