SUMMARY:Bébé ARTISTE
DESCRIPTION:A playful reimagining of the internationally acclaimed Fringe hit ARTISTE – Ages 0-3 \nBébé Artiste is a gentle\, physical theatre experience for babies\, toddlers\, and their grown-ups\, reimagining Brymore Productions’ internationally touring Fringe favourite ARTISTE for the very young. \nThrough clowning\, mime\, and playful interaction\, a bumbling artist sets out to create a masterpiece from nothing. Children are invited to engage\, respond\, and make their mark as the performance unfolds\, becoming part of the creative process. Our masterpiece will be created in real time\, shaped by play\, curiosity\, and the audience themselves – a joyful\, collective act of creativity. \nUntamed and expressive\, Bébé Artiste is a real-life demonstration of “my kid could have done that” and proof that they absolutely can. \nFIND OUT MORE
