Little Steps 27 - 30 Sep 2013

The story of a small person in a big world. Part of Dublin Theatre Festival Family Season.

A string of short poetic sketches illustrate moments in a little person’s world. Mummy and Daddy. Granny and Grandad. A snail and a tree by the side of the road. Playschool filled with little friends. A bicycle, a small bed and a night-time story. An umbrella and the hope for rain.

Little Steps is the story of a small person in a big world. Wrapped in a universe full of memories the audience is suspended in a cosy, safe space surrounded by beautiful stories and moments of recognition told through music and lighting, pictures and poetry, puppets, objects and sound.

Specialising in plays for the very smallest of us, Teater My dedicates their charming and magical performances to little people on their journey into the world.
