A troupe of comedians returns to the place of their childhood, staging a show for the local audience. As the artists perform tricks of wonder and illusionism, memories of the past come to light and a beloved childhood companion appears again. It's the spirit of the little Man. True magic occurred.
Childhood of a Magician is a theatre course for children. From body/voice work, to the staging of a play, to the making of a small film. Texts from Herman Hesse's Kindheit des Zauberers and H.C. Andersen's The Nightingale.
Elements of the course: the play of a joyful body and voice in action / the freedom of singing / the dance of rhythms / impulse and action / working with small fears / the sharing of energy / imagination and improvisation as seeds of creativity.
