Sinopse
What’s life? It’s always revolving around the Sun, like a carrousel around the Sun.
Como um Carrossel [Like a Carrousel] tells the story of a little girl who grows in a kind of journey, during the course of which plenty of questions are raised and spur her relation with the world. The audience travels through that little girl’s open look and the way she relates to life.
Written and directed by João Paulo Seara Cardoso (1956-2010) in 2006 for Teatro de Marionetas do Porto, Como um Carrossel is a new creation based on the text Como um Carrossel à Volta do Sol [Like a Carrousel Around the Sun]. This new version features Portuguese Sign Language moments in order to reach more people.
This piece represents the journey through life, among happiness and sadness, fear and hope. A text that fosters the imaginative flight of children. — Isabel Barros
