FOR THE FIRST TIME KFTC WELCOMES THEATRE FROM SCOTLAND

27/6/2017 | 0 Comments

Kotor Festival of Theatre for Children will celebrate its 25th jubilee edition – a quarter of a century of its existence. Main Theatre Program, which will be held from July 1 – 12, 2017, will be the richest so far. The audience will have an opportunity to see and enjoy twenty professional performances of various genres for both children and youth.
​
For the first time, our Festival will welcome guest thetre from Scotland - Tortoise in a Nutshell Theatre from Edinburgh. An award winning theatre, Tortoise in a Nutshell will present two productions to our audience - FISK, in coproduction with Theater Katapult from Denmark and Macrobert Art Centre, recommended for age 12+; and THE LOST THINGS recommended for age 9+.

​FISK, authored by Tortoise in a Nutshell and Ann Sofie Oxenvad, directed by Ross Mackay, is about a tiny boat, which is tossed through rolling waves and thundering storms, like a speck amidst the immense turbulent seas. Steadily rowing forward into the nothingness is a fisherman, driven by despair, sailing to nowhere with all his worldly possessions. He looks out as the darkness looms and prepares himself to leap… But before he can jump out, something else jumps in; a mass of color thrashing about the tiny boat. This uninvited guest has finally broken through the surface to discover what lies above. Fisk is a story of a man and a fish, and the unexpected impact they have upon one another.
​Weaving together a rich tapestry of puppetry, movement and intricate design, alongside an evocative original soundtrack, the piece draws audiences into an immersive marine world. Examining themes of depression, dependence and desolation, Fisk is an exploration of the lengths we can go to in order to escape from ourselves, yet also finds joy in even the deepest and darkest depths. The show will be performed on Wednesday, July 5, at 8 p.m. in Nikola Đurković Cultural Centre.

THE LOST THINGS authored by Oliver Emanuel and Tortoise in a Nutshell, directed by Ross Mackay is a story a boy, who falls and finds himself in a dark and terrifying new world. It’s a world of lost things: car keys, wedding rings, dads, and a mysterious girl who is building an amazing machine. Performed in a unique dome structure, The Lost Things is about losing things and finding things you didn’t even know you were looking for; a dark fairy-tale set in a fantastical world, where nothing is quite as it seems. Created by the award-winning theater company Tortoise in a Nutshell and writer Oliver Emanuel (Dragon, Titus, The Day I swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish), The Lost Things was originally commissioned by Imaginate for their 2015 international festival of theater and dance for young audiences. The show will be performed two times on Friday, July 7, at 6 and 8 p.m. in Nikola Đurković Cultural Centre.
​
Cast in both performances are Alex Bird and Arran Howie.
