TALES IN FINGER-TIPS

"When music becomes one with the story and the imagination takes the body of the puppets,
that is Tales in ‘finger-tips’, an enchanting world of music and tales ."

The performance has been created to draw the children of the primary school near to the music through one of the most loved and popular musical instrument: the guitar. In this unusual path among the notes, the guide role is entrusted to the tales and the puppets; the simplest way to reach the child imagination.

The little audiences are plunged in the magical world of the live music, which is not merely the sound-track of the performance, but it becomes a real concert played just in front of their eyes from the Guitar Orchestra ‘Centocorde’.

Tales and puppets On the music and all-around music, the Story teller tells the sweet and strange stories of Donald Bisset and a selection from Alice (Lewis Carroll) while the card-board puppets of Teatro del Corvo give life to the characters.

An interactive show The Story teller acts also as an interlocutor for the children; involving them in the magical atmosphere of the stories, stressing the colorful and onomatopoeic functions of the music. At the performance end the children are requested to make questions about music and puppets thus exploiting all the didactic features offered by the entertainment.
