Kindertheater
Sandscape is a silent theatrical piece that embraces the beauty and essence of nature. It evokes the visual, hearing and rhythmic abilities that gets you transfixed with the aid of sand as its major tool and with the accompaniment of a black plastic nylon, cups, umbrella and buckets. The piece introduces and sinks it audience into a world of playful experience. It is a relaxing and engaging piece of theatre that explores the texture, weight, and breath of sand on various materials. There is an ever changing view, the sight of sand, swirling and creating shapes, prints, lines, games and landscape.
Sandscape was conceptualized during a theatre workshop at the Magnet Theatre, Capetown, organized by the Goethe-Institut Johannesburg.
The play has already been successfully performed at various international theatre festivals e.g. ASSITEJ Theatre Festival South Africa, Starke Stücke Festival in Frankfurt or Theatre Festival in Luanda/ Angola.
