Petals & Tails

Petals & Tales is our brand-new performance featuring dance, music, poetry and fairy tales. The show features a magic tree surrounded by hundreds of flower petals.

Many surprises await our young audience during the show.

As we grow older does our imagination become less important Do we let go of the magic Why does everything have to make sense As children transition into teenagers, they play less, forgoing imagination and fantasy for more serious pursuits and relationships as they try to find their place in the world. Can we remind children to hold on to the wonderful world of fairy tales

We tell the story of the Flowerpot Man, a magical tale that encourages children to allow wonderful, incredible and improbable things to be a part of their lives. The music and sound design is created by British composer Nathaniel Reed especially for the show. Petals & Tales is a collaboration between Panta Rei Danseteater (NO) and the Korean company SangSang Maru.
