DOMINO
Puppet Theatre
When everything around her collapses, the child still dreams. Among the ruins and the silence of the rubble, she discovers that all she has to do is close her eyes to travel. In the darkness of her eyelids, she travels, stars light up, and each shadow transforms into planets.
“DOMINÓ” is a puppet theatre performance that combines dance, music and visual elements to create a meeting space between art and community. In each territory, the work transforms the collective gaze into poetic material, in a shared journey between generations, bodies, memories and dreams.
Like dominoes, each person touches the other, and what begins as a small game unfolds into a joint creation, where the dream ceases to be individual and becomes shared. We, together, hand in hand, are an act of resistance.
A performance of puppet theatre, dance and music, developed within the context of an artistic residency and community creation, reflecting on imagination, resistance and collective hope.
