This theater performance tells, with humor and tenderness, the chaos of moving as seen by a somewhat lost dad, surrounded by cardboard boxes and childhood memories.
PAPA is moving house. He’s completely lost! He can’t find anything anymore, not even his... child! Cardboard boxes everywhere – what an incredible playground!
When you move, you leave something behind… or someone…
And you realise there’s a piece of paper missing from the child’s every drawing hanging on the wall…
When you move house, everything is upside down! You no longer know which way is up or down. You don’t know if everything that’s happening is real or if you’re in a funny dream.
In a playful and humorous way, the actor shows curious minds how masks and puppets can be made from pieces of packaging cardboard using simple and inexpensive methods.
