The Little Old Man is on the road!
The Little Old Man is the world premiere of a Canadian adaptation based on a well-loved Swedish story by Barbro Lindgren.
A touching story of love, loneliness, fear and hope told through beautifully crafted rod puppets.
“…a piece that can be enjoyed by anyone at any age. Its intelligence and honest pathos brings hope, beauty and compassion to our human vulnerabilities.”Wendy, Nanaimo audience member
This is a heart-warming adventure that takes young people on a journey with the little old man. A girl, a big dog and several town folk make up the rest of the cast as a lonely little old man discovers the joy of friendship, the pain of betrayal, the importance of sharing and the true value of love. It is an eloquent story told by beautifully crafted puppets and their actor/manipulator co-stars.
