Seeds, roots, trees, firewood, sticks and paper – these are the ways of wood. Woodways takes the young audience through an adventure in discovering the characteristics / features of wood. It is friendly, melodious and very flexible irrespective of its shape. This occasion is a time to share feelings, communicate ideas and images. A relaxed, happy relationship between the actors and audience is established, drawing them together and building mutual confidence, which enhances their enjoyment of the discovery and play with wood. Through observation, the listeners are able to experience a comfortable feel of cultural rhythms as they gain insight into motives and patterns of life in the world of the wood. The play will be presented at the Goethe-Institut and in several primary schools of Yaounde.
