THE BUTTERFLY WORKSHOP
Loosely based on the children’s book of the same name by Gioconda Belli
Rodolfo is one of many ‘Creators of All Things’, whose task is to imagine and bring into being every living creature and every object on Earth with the utmost wisdom, whilst the Earth is still completely empty and grey. But Rodolfo’s dream is to create a creature that is both like a bird and like a flower. Yet when Rodolfo and his friends are assigned to work in the not-so-popular insect workshop, he recognises his opportunity. The greatest success the inventors in the Insect Workshop had achieved so far had been spiders – but that was about to change. With thousands of sketches and hours of studying nature, Rodolfo weaves his new creature into being: a creature he intends to call a ‘butterfly’.
In this puppet show, the meticulous duo Artisanen explore the creative process in a poetic way through the story of young Rodolfo.
