The Squabble
What to expect
Two hands meet, play, quarrel and reconcile. What could be simpler?
Set in a sand pit, the drama is played out sensitively and skillfully with two hands. The hands are simply and expressively hands - and also become both creatures and emotional characters.
The story is a universal one of life, of meeting new friends, of sharing the space, of conflict, and eventually reconciliation, love and peace.
Life told and summarised with two hands. The puppet and the theatre in the most simple of settings.
'The Squabble' is aimed at young children aged 3 to 7 years old.
