Vision Mechanics

Using shadow puppetry, table top puppets, object theatre, dance, music and animation, this new multi-
media production tells the story of a lonely boy who discovers companionship and trust through the
curiosity of a mischievous star and the devotion of a faithful dog.

Inside a replica of a Bedouin tent the audience sits on pillows and cushions. Around the top of the tent
above a panoramic screen for projections, a starlit sky is visible. From one constellation, a small, energetic flicker of light falls from the sky to investigate the world below and, meeting a small boy and his father, the story begins.
