The brightest. Polar Star.

Theatre Caravan for Children and Youth Performance - expanding the theatre-going experience for children.

This is the first children’s play written by acclaimed German playwright Dea Loher.  A theatre piece for children aged 5 and up.

As global warming forces polar bear Benny to leave the Arctic, he sets out on a journey in search of a partner. Along the way, he encounters a plastic-filled sea, food shortages, and displacement—issues that mirror the challenges of our modern world. Through a lively mix of marimba music, video, dance, song, and spoken word, the story follows animals striving to survive with strength and humor in a changing world.

Created by Dea Loher
Translated and dramatised by Reiko Miwa
Directed by Yoshinori Kimiya
Performers: Daimu Amamiya, Airi Nagano, Kikue Sengoku and Wataru Nagahama
