VALIENT DEEDS

After a time of exploring their own fears and learning from children stories that fascinate or keep them up at night, the artists set to work and created a “brave” performance. The team mixed text, shadow theatre, dance and original music to materialise and dematerialise childhood fears. The outcome is a children performance unique on the stages of Bucharest.

“Fapte Vitejesti is the most intelligent theatre performance for children that I have seen in 2015. A play about children’s fears and parents’ anxieties, humorously and tenderly debunked. A performance on the shadow of anxieties that grow tall or small within us.” (Mihaela Michailov, theatre critic, playwright)
