International Arts Carnival 2026: "Tree" by Théâtre Motus (Canada)

Wonder begins when gentle hands reach out High up in the magical tree, caterpillar puppets nuzzle and play. Mama bird broods over her luminous eggs in a cozy nest. Forest guides invite tiny explorers to move gently through the enchanting environment, caressing little heads with soft feathers. Fascinating instruments fill the air with tender lullabies. As evening falls, the moon rises over the shimmering Milky Way, inspiring little ones with the strength to take flight like a baby bird. Toddlers can sit on parents' laps or cushions, or crawl and walk to discover a world of textures at their own pace and interact with the performers in a nurturing and intimate space made just for them. Created by Canada's Théâtre Motus, specialist in crafting performances for thevery young, Tree is a multi-sensory universe of light, puppetry and live music, the perfect first theatre experience for little ones aged 1 to 3.
