Description
The Revolution of the Old Toys is a free theatrical adaptation of Christos Boulotis’ fairy tale of the same title, directed by Sofia Palantza.
On a rainy night, the old toys decide to start a revolution. Armed with courage and enthusiasm, they will live out the adventure and the danger, deciding to confront the electronic games that were stealing the children’s thoughts. They will also clash with their own leader, once they discover that he is not a toy but a human being. Using imagination as their only weapon, the toys will engage in an uneven battle against the electronic fighters of war and violence, to claim their place in the children’s hearts.
Group spirit, camaraderie, solidarity, peace, and combative spirit, freedom, and most of all imagination as a manifestation of creativity, are just some of the concepts this performance explores. The Revolution of the Old Toys will offer audiences moments of joy, taking them on a journey through colourful clouds alongside clockwork-marching toy soldiers, cymbal-banging toy monkeys, little drummers, unicorns, and multicoloured balls.
