Description
KOPERGIETERY & KGbe, Belgium
SPOM International Theatre Festival for Young Audiences
For children aged 8 and above
He is the great ruler of the underwater state, shamelessly grabbing the last bite, and no one is allowed to contradict him: The Pale Baron is always right. He can and knows everything. What he really cannot stand are poets. They deeply disturb him because they hide all sorts of things in and between their lines, and this can be dangerous for the Pale Baron. Questions also make him uncomfortable, so they are strictly forbidden in his realm. But children ask questions, and many: Why, for example, does the sea level keep rising, and what does the Pale Baron intend to do about it? Or where and why have all the poets disappeared overnight? The musicians Felka and Felix also can't let go of these questions. With their small revolutionary singalong show, the two secretly tour underground. A plea for art, poetry, friendship, and freedom – in an authoritarian state that hunts down all who are different, ask questions, and resist the diktat of utility. CONCEPT & IDEA & PLAY & MUSIC
