Settle into your cozy nest with the mama bird brooding her luminous eggs. The magical world of the tree will open up to you, with its insects and animals accompanied by soft or rhythmic music. The moon will rise to lull you to sleep with its stars and milky way, to give you the strength to take flight like a baby bird of light.
TREE lets you enter a fully interactive, multi-sensory universe, wrapped in soft light, music and silence, where five characters interact with your little ones.
Accompanying TREE is TREE: A WORLD WITHIN ITSELF, a performance tailored towards children with ASD and their families. Unlike “relaxed” performances appropriate for children with mild autism, TREE: A WORLD WITHIN ITSELF is designed for children with all levels of autism. Audience size is limited to approximately 15 people with 5 artists on stage (a ratio of 1 artist to 3 audience members), to meet the audience’s specific needs and increase interactions with the artists.
