More about the event:
In "_Bam_Boom_" two children find themselves trapped in a basement during a war. Despite the terror and chaos, they manage to communicate and connect by harnessing the power of imagination.
Can the sound of a warplane transform into the hum of a fantastical flight among the clouds? Could the booming of bombs bear resemblance to a giant elephant coming to carry them on its back? Might the smoke and sparks of explosions appear like mist in an enchanted forest full of fairies? The horror and despair of war propel their minds to open doors into a frenzied celebration in their own wonderland.
The performance was successfully showcased at “the 12 Coupés” Festival at the New Wagon (Athens) and travelled to the XVI Semana De Teatro Para Niñas Festival (Mexico City).
