A Real Elephant
paper toy theater piece performed in an old suitcase. The show has been performed at the International Festivals of Paper and Toy Theater in France, Germany, Russia, Mexico, as well as in the USA (Great Small Works, "92 street Y", etc).
Nadia, a little girl, loses her passion for life. All day long she lies in her bed, dull, getting thinner and weaker. Until one day, following a dream she has dreamed, she makes a wish. She would like a real elephant to visit her. Will her father take this challenge and make it happen? Will she get well?
As the story unfolds, the udience will gasp upon the revelation of the larger-than-life leading character!
"A Real Elephant" is a theatrical retelling of the children's novel by A. Kuprin, great classical writer, explorer and adventurer. One of many Russian émigrés writing in Paris in the first part of the 20th century, Alexander Kuprin writes an "Elephant" in 1907 for reading aloud to children. This short heartwarming story became a favorite for children of all ages.
Original idea, design, music: Yulya Dukhovny
