A puppet theatre depicting the relationship between a boy and a tree through the years is set to get the young audience thinking about nature, greed, fairness or unfairness, and acknowledging mistakes.
“When all was green” is a 45-minute production by The Key Theatre form Israel that is designed for an audience from age 5 and above. It will have a daily show at 8 p.m. at the Macau Conservatory Auditorium from today until Sunday, as part of the 29th Macau Arts Festival organised by the Cultural Affairs Bureau (IC).
From just a 15-minute media preview of the performance yesterday at the conservatory the performance managed to tell, without words, how people’s relationship with nature changes as they grow up and age.
