Without it, a little boy would lose its only friend and, later on, a lover of the sky would never reach so high. Blending the animate with the inanimate, the story explores the life which exists in every object that carries emotions and sentiments. Through their relationship with the giraffe, our main characters connect with their ability to love, to befriend and dream on…
Hop Signor Puppet Theater was founded by Evgenia Tsichlia and ThanosSioris. The artists use minimal scenic elements that leave space for the exploration of movement. Their stories are inspired by places, objects and people. They are funny stories, moving stories, stories that invite you to complete them with your own imagination and sentiments.
